There's an interview with Charles on youtube and he said that this song is actually a narrative. I won't go into that much detail (you can look the interview up yourself if you want to), but its basically about this guy who lives in some remote part of the earth and he gets bored so he decides to capture the Great White Whale, which is kind of the "king" of all the animals in the land. He captures it, but then the animals revolt against him because they want their leader back. I'd highly reccomend listening to the full interview, he talks about the meanings af almost all the songs.
