lyrics

Humble Otter said to Sad-Sad Swan,
"Won't you come back with me to the pond?
I've been pining for you for quite some time,
to make you one potential wife."

(Swan said)
"But, oh, dear Otter, what you just don't know -
is you've got no feathers to fly with me back home..
So sink back into the sea
So you can't bother me.
I've been preparing for this departure for some time."

Humble Otter went to Doctor Duck,
explained his situation and expelled trust.
After only a few minutes of listening
Dr. Duck had said just one thing,
"What the fuck? Just 'cause you don't have feathers doesn't mean that you cannot love!
And those who don't have feathers can still walk!"

Sink back into the sea
So you can't bother me.
Well I've been preparing for your departure for some time.

So I'll be comin' by your place to grab my shit,
Hopefully you won't be there when I do this.
And if I don't see our cat before I leave,
give her a good-bye kiss for me.
