Come, Whale, Away Parody of "Come Sail Away" Styx (Jonah 1-4) I'm sailing to Spain, yet I know the Lord has a work for me But I've got to retreat Or He might save the life of my enemies A port back in Joppa -- I climbed aboard But misfortune followed -- a deadly storm And I defied the Lord on high -- a scary thought I'm pushed into the sea I guess those windy waves spell the d**h of me Some trip here I've had I think of how this ends, and it seems real bad But they had to throw me over So the storm would go And so now I'm kicked out of that rotten boat But I'll die just as I am -- a scary thought A rather big and strange whale Appeared from up ahead It swam to me and not the boat I guess I'll just play dead -- play dead Come, whale, away, come, whale, away Come, whale, away with me, yeah Come, whale, away, come, whale, away Come, whale, away with me Come, whale, away, come, whale, away Come, whale, away with me, Jonah Come, whale, away, come, whale, away Come, whale, away with me I thought that great whale ate me Much to my surprise It's nice and warm and doesn't drip I stayed there for three nights Jonah 1:17 But the LORD provided a great fish to swallow Jonah, And Jonah was inside the fish three days and three Nights.
