[Refrain]
There was a swirling mass of water that lived in a quiet pond
It asked permission from its master to visit the lands beyond

[Chorus]
And its master allowed it to fly
So the wind swept the whirlpool across the sky

[Verse]
Whirlpool's mother wore a jacket she'd sewn out of dental floss
It was stolen by a monkey that sold it to an albatross

[Chorus]
And it had the idea to fly
So the wind swept the whirlpool across the sky

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
There was a swirling mass of water that lived in a quiet pond
It asked permission from its master to visit the lands beyond

[Chorus]
And its master allowed it to fly
So the wind swept the whirlpool across the sky
And it had the idea to fly
So the wind swept the whirlpool across the sky
