Analysis of "Folds Of Waves"



I dwell in the deep blue
 ocean, enwrapped in folds
of waves. I live my life in turbulence
like I'm living within Noah's Arc.
I am a penguin, always ready for the
ceremony, dressed in my tuxedo; I'm
the fish you wouldn't want to eat 'cause my
bones would perforate your mind and break
your heart. I am a beautiful mermaid, I live
beneath the sea in pure harmony with water
creatures; sharks are my friends and I'm in love
with a whale. O, in the deep blue ocean is where
I dwell, enwrapped in folds of waves.
