about

This song was inspired by a harbor porpoise research cruise in Southeast AK that took place in July and August 2019.

lyrics

You stuck your head into my rack
Told me “get up! We’re going back!”
To the line we’ve tried so many times
The weather here is like a crime

The southeast part of southeast AK
Does not seem to want to play
Fog and wind and mist all day
Take us back to Glacier Bay

There’s no horizon out at sea
No horizon for you and me
In the field take what we get
At least our effort isn’t wet

Tracklines crushed, look for the prize
A harbor porpoise before it dives
If we miss it we’ll be sure to cry
‘Cause you’ll throw us crusties from your eyes

Up there in the wind and cold
Clothes so wet they’re growing mold
Dancing with binos on poles
I’d rather dance with you at home

There’s no horizon out at sea
No horizon for you and me
In the field take what we get
At least our effort isn’t wet

Rocks and traffic everywhere
Radar’s off and I don’t care
Listening to the diesels drone
Got elbow sightings on my phone

There’s no horizon out at sea
No horizon for you and me
In the field take what we get
At least our effort isn’t wet
