To the tune of "Secret Agent Man"

There's a man who
lives atop a glacier.
He lives in harmony
with mother nature.
The firn beneath his
feet, is moving by ice creep.
The debris around him
seems to be quite angular.
Chorus: Supra-Glacial Man! Supra-Glacial Man!
He fell into a moulin, and landed in a kame.
Up above the ice is
really melting.
The water's rising
now our man is floating.
Down the tube he
goes, along with debris flows.
Now he's part of the
sub-glacial drainage.
Chorus: He's Sub-Glacial Man! He's Sub-Glacial Man!
The water started cooling, and he froze into the bed.
Now the ice is
slowing toward the margin.
The basil ice it want
to keep on chargin'.
Our hero's been
entrained. He is severely strained
He's moving in a
thrust up to the surface.
Chorus: He's En-Glacial Man! He's En-Glacial Man!
He calved off of the margin, and became a cyclopsam.
