Wind In Our Sail

A boy and a girl Albatross around their necks Hands burning from the rope Ship stranded in the tropics Acidification wiped out the tiger shark Let's try to save their souls And trust the man with the Torah We got the wind in our sail Like Darwin on the Beagle And Mendel experimenting with a pea We got the wind in our sail And we can do so many great things together together Breathe in the salt Slicing waves at forty knots Cumulonimbus in the sky This is what we waited for And now there's no more hyperventilating in wheelchairs We're gonna save the last auk on Funk Island We had to do it wrong Before we could do it right We got the wind in our sail Like Darwin on the Beagle And Mendel experimenting with a pea We got the wind in our sail And we can do so many great things together together Pushing the stone up the hill And if it rolls back down Whoa Sisyphus it rolls back down Pushing the stone up the hill And if it rolls back down Whoa Sisyphus it rolls back down We got the wind in our sail Like Darwin on the Beagle And Mendel experimenting with a pea We got the wind in our sail And we can do so many great things together together
