Do you like
Do you like
Do you like do you like do you like
My sealskin trousers?
Can you hold
Can you hold
Can you hold can you hold can you hold
Can you hold your breath?
Follow me
Nothing makes me happier
'cept the sea itself
(The sea itself)
The sea itself
(The sea itself)
The sea itself
(The sea itself)
The sea itself
(The sea itself)
And the sea
And the wind
Yeah, the wind
And nothing makes me happier
Than to see you swim, too
'cause this is mine
Yes, it's mine
Oh, it's your way to be
I am the signifying wolf
(The signifying wolf)
I am the signifying wolf
(The signifying wolf)
I'm the aquatic ape
(The aquatic ape)
I am the signifying wolf
(The signifying wolf)
Hear me go: [howls]
Hear me go: [howls]
Hear me go...
