Modest Mouse - Whale Song Lyrics
I guess I am a scout
So I should find a way out
So everyone can find a way out
They keep us in
I'm rising up
Wish I was sinking down
And it's not like
There was warning
We were happy
And it's not like
There was mourning
In the warning
I know I am a scout
So everyone can find a way out
I know I am a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone can find a way out
Instead of seeing a neighbor out
God, I wish I would've found a way out
It's the last time
We were happy
Ever happy
I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out

Modest Mouse Whale Song Comments
I love this saw it live in new haven ten years ago. They opened with it.
I'm 10 years late but I've known them for more so I don't mind, man just listen that guitar talking, 🔥🔥 thanks MM humanity still don't listen 🙏🌎
I used to listen to this and watch the video while stoned as fuck. So trippy. So amazing whether sober or high though ❤😍
10 years?!?!?!?!
wow, I just fount it accidentally, nice guitar
I wonder how many people found this looking for king rat
Also what does this have to do with whales?
What on this beautiful floating rock is this jaw dropping shit that is gracing my tender earholes?
Edit: holy hell im shaking
Edit 2: dammit mouse! How am i supposed to appreciate other music now when i know that i could be listening to this instead?

4 The Whale Song 6:04
I dont understand this, i saw it on other songs. What do you mean?
4:04 oh God I just noticed that's the same triangle from the new album of
"I'm still here"
"Poison the well"
The only song that make me still sane
Masterpiece.. if you get it you get.
If you don't, enjoy the music
Find Gurdjieff and respect "the G". Good luck, beloved truth seekers. Up is down, the Earth and the Moon have changed places.
I should have found a way out
Comment number 1000 for my favorite modest mouse song, feels good man
Please dislike my comment.. Thanks 🥂
I work for nothing
I named my daughter after this song. Scout
I heard this song for the first time when i was getting sober. After some time i begged and pleaded with my brothers to do the same, but they wouldn't listen. I thought that maybe if i just showed them how they might be able to follow me. that's what this song reminds me of. I thought maybe i could be the one who scouted out through the pain and misery and find the path out, then come back and show them the way.
This song makes me think of Billy from Stranger Things.
this is pure gold
MM ur cool
i want that hand thing...
The weight of this song on acid is intense
I've showed this song to so many people and they all hate it. So why is this so perfect to me?
You'd expect this one to be with rats😂😂
Try listening at 0.75x speed, crazy trip.
You guys are creating everywhere you go. This song especially is a painting itself.
Best thing about modest mouse besides their music is that fact they don't care if they make the top charts, they just do it for the music beautiful
*Sobs... saddest guitar riff ever...
Edit: solo
I guess i was a scout
I shoulda found a way out
So everyone can find a way out
I'm rising up, wish I was sinking down....
they bring us in to pull us out. god i wish i could have found a WAY OUT
why are there no whales?
I should have found a way out
the video visuals always remind me of something like the Smashing Pumpkins "tonight" vibe IMO... Modest Mouse has some of the most odd but awesome videos... like Tool
God this band is really growing on me
This was a hell of a lot more Robert Smith than I was expecting.
Ten years gone so fast. Stop the Earth i will go out
shit. ten years and this is the first im hearing this
It's like tool without the hypocrisy
How did this song not end up with King Rat's music video? 😂
This music, these VIDEOS, they FUCK my head so GOOOOD. 💜Their style is beyond "insanely genius." That guitar genuinely sounds like a fucking whale cry bro. So many unbelievably awesome songs.
M.M. forever. 🤘
Heavy Anchor
Coffee cashed.
Herb ash.
Tobacco stains are all that remain.
Money's tight.
I kid myself.
Pulling my own strings, turning the wheel only in one direction.
Circles, sinking.
Cold and heat, rotating.
The shoulders tolerance.
Close to cashed.
Bottle empty.
Friends have dried up.
The joy.
The painful stains.
All that remains.
Cashed.
"I guess I am a scout, so I should find a way out. So everyone can find a way out." Holy shit some powerful lyrics right there. Rip me and my friends' aspirations. Just one of us coulda rallied the rest but nobody did. None of us even tried
Imagine a point and click adventure game in this setting
Reminds me of that time i got everyone else killed. The other tribes were coming down on us and we had little time to act. As the leader i proposed we go through the swamps. Most people were afraid of the swamp so i figured they wouldn't think we're going that way, which did work. That is, until the gators came.
My mother said this song sounded like whales. By the comments ,I guess she was right
This song should be CZ no end house theme ,fits so well
God damn
Goosebumps. Pure magic.
I love the video. The snails. The complexity... the everything. The music is genius.
I love this.
Whale Whale Whale brought me here ;) I thought maybe they meant Dashboard for the man-eating fish theme, but there are a lot of relevant ocean-themed songs from MM
Seeing this song live last month was a true gift. It became one of my favorites
It's like the guitarist for Tool and whoever did the RHCPs 'Otherside' video had an illegitimate hate child who grew up to be a music video
379 deaf, dumb and blind kids sure play mean pinball
Just saw them in concert. Fucking amazing
feelin' it
This is really bad!
This song, it's, it's incredible!
Been following Modest Mouse for over 15 years and this is still my favorite thing they ever did. Alone Down There's probably #2.
Just realised from 2:50 they’re all lying on their backs
lol this song is underrated for a reason
fuck I love this song, man!
Is it really the greatest of all time? Of all time? Of all time?
This will forever be a masterpiece. "I know I was the scout, I should have found a way out." The sense of urgency that these lyrics portray is perfectly echoed in the guitar tone and notes. They made you feel the emotion and plight of the characters in the song through their specific guitar tone and melody, and the genius of that can never be overstated. Forever a favorite.
You said it. First time listening the lyrics brought a tear to my eyes.
1,oooth comment bitches💪💪
God, I wish I would've found a way out
Everyones gotta find their way of squiggilin their strings (:
I first heard this song on a mushroom trip. I'm really into taoism and buddhism, so it really spoke to me. What an incredible tune.
I asked google to play a whale song she chose this one. Great choice 😊
Already miss my phase shifter pedal lol
This is the 1000th comment and I take a lot of pride in that
Great song the video actually makes me a bit car sick...
This video has more story in 6 minutes than Star Wars has had since 2010.
see you in whorelando tomorrow!

Timothy Slone Slone UNO RECIENTE
The bass in the beginning is something I can n longer live without.
schizophrenia claiming to be a genius.....sorry for the time spent((((
Their music videos are always so amazing
That's like the coolest shit I've never seen
Uhm.....
This is such a good song
underrated song
This is not my favorite song but the layering of the lyrics that deserves credit most definitely I've heard it before I liked it then I like it now there I have said that
I love this song and video so much! ❤️
Sucks one can only "thumbs up" once on this vid/song.
lol it said video block in country then like 2 seconds later this video pops up on the playlist. That's slick vevo. bravo.
Dat bass line tho...thats whats moving u as well as the lead ppl!
Every where I go,
Bitches always know,
That Charlie Sheen has got a weenie that he loves to show
modest mouse has always been one of my favorite bands . I'm more into the old modest mouse but this song is pretty tight
It better not be like King Rat, those whales freaked the heck out of me......
"I know I was a scout I should have found a way out.." man. This line resonates with me so much
Shit this is one of my fav songs ever!
2:50 though
The guitar sounds like a crying baby seal
cause it is
Because it's a "Wail song" Get it?
Anybody know what the device Issac is using at the beginning of the video?
