Standing on a Whale

He's standing on a whale
A missionary man
Casting his rod for minnows
After one too many blows
Baby it shows

He's standing on a whale
And Mercy's packed her bag
Under the weeping willow
There was rapture on the shore
Baby there's more

In a little church, in a little town on a hill
At a little desk in his Sunday best
writing words, marking verse
Preaching careful words to an empty church
on a little stage
Then puts out the lights, takes a heavy bag from the chair, locks the door

He's standing on a whale
A missionary man
Casting his rod for minnows
After one too many blows
Baby it shows

He's standing on a whale

The house is burning down
A pistol under the pillow
and a crucifix above
Baby that's love

In a little church, in a little town on a hill
At a little desk in his Sunday best
writing words, marking verse
Preaching careful words to an empty church
on a little stage
Then puts out the lights, takes a heavy bag from the chair, locks the door

He's standing on a whale
A missionary man
Casting his rod for minnows
After one too many blows
Baby it shows

He's standing on a whale
And Mercy's packed her bag
A pistol under the pillow
and a crucifix above
Baby that's love
