You don't even know me   But you hunt me the same   You don't even know me   But you hunt me the same   You don't even see me   But you seek me the same      And you cheat the scales   When you push in   The stakes are fixed   So I can never win      And if all fails you can pull on the line   It's just a whale's tale that I leave behind   You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind      Still you pay no kind keep pulling in   Chain the tide so that I can't swim   And if all else fails you can pull on the line      You don't even know me   But you own me the same   You don't even know me   But you own me the same      And when your net is empty   It's still me who you blame   When the deep blue sea grows dead and still   Take a bow, you had a hand in it      And if all fails you can pull on the line   It's a whale's tale that I leave behind   You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind   And if all else fails you can pull on the line      It's a whale's tale that I leave behind   Said you don't take no heed but you won't get my mind   And if all else fails you can pull on the line
