Mestre Jonas

Inside the whale lives Master Jonas
Since he came of age
The whale is his home, his city
Inside he keeps his ties, his linen suits

And he says his name is Jonas
And he says he's a holy man
And he says he lives inside the whale by his own will
And he says he's committed
And he says he signed a paper
That will keep him trapped in the whale
Until the end of his life
Until the end of his life

Inside the whale life is so much easier
Nothing disturbs Jonas' silence and peace
When the weather is bad, the storm stays outside
The whale is safer than a big ship

And he says his name is Jonas
And he says he's a holy man
And he says he lives inside the whale by his own will
And he says he's committed
And he says he signed a paper
That will keep him trapped in the whale
Until the end of his life
Until the end of his life
Until he goes up to heaven
