BOTE
Oh sea legs please don't fail me nowI pray lord please help me rightThis ship todayCause I can't take much moreOf this strain on my battered hull.I thought I was toughI thought I was strongThought I could handle anyone who came alongThought the worth of a boatin how well it floatsAnd this old boat won't float for long with all these holesSo I grab both sides with iron willIt's fit for war but weighs too much and starts to fillNow I'm clutching the sides as long as I canIt's much too cold to swimAnd much too deep to stand.When I started off down this pathI was well aware of the factsAnd despite the proof I have vowed to chooseI continue bearing these (?)SongtexteI thought I was quickas smart as a whipI guess I met my matchBut stiffen up, my lip.My wit's getting weakThe sea's on the riseAnd here I sit exposedatop the lying sideI thought I was toughI thought I was strongBut I can't stay aboard this sinking ship for longI thought I was quickSmart as a whipI guess I met my match this timeI'll take my leave.And when (?) comes to shoreAnd I feel like enough's enoughAnd despite the shit-storm that's pounding my homeI walk outside and set off.Oh sea legs please don't fail me nowOh sea legs please don't fail me now Aus Songtexte Mania
