"Orca" lyrics

"Orca"

I'll be a killer whale, when I grow up
I'll be a vulture
I'll be an animal
A carnivore
I'll be a monster
Clenching my jagged jaws
Over the capture
I'll be a killer whale when I grow up

I'll be a tidal wave when I grow up
Crashing on harbours
I'll be a temperamental element
A raging water

I'll be a perfect storm swallowing over
I'll be a killer whale when I grow up
I'll be a monster

I'll be a hurricane when I grow up
An ugly thunder
I'll be a forest fire about to flood
Over an empire
I'll be an avalanche chewing its rupture
I'll be a killer whale, when I grow up
I'll be a monster

I'll be a killer whale
