The Heart Strings -- Pedalo
It seems as good a day as any
To start my trek across the ocean
With no funds for ship or sail
I ll use my legs and my devotion.
An aqua bike will be my vessel
And high adventure the land I seek
So farewell friends who ve come to gather
Waving hankies, tear on cheek, oh...
It s a long long way to go on a pedalo, a pedalo...
It s a long long way to go on a pedalo, a pedalo...
My joy was surging, spirit soaring
The sky was huge, the sea was placid
But soon my vim was somewhat dimmed
By bucketloads of lactic acid.
And then a ship took me aboard
Was full of whiskey and hearty sailors
I rested up, then pedaled onwards
Once I found out they were whalers
It s a long long way to go on a pedalo, a pedalo...
It s a long long way to go on a pedalo, a pedalo...
I saw a mermaid, thwarted pirates
Wrestled sea squids, this
