Sail Your Ship By Songtext
When I met you, you were off course.

Fate's winds blew you to my sand.

You said, "My! What beauty lies here!"

but you just needed some dry land


You hired hands to recruit me.

but them uniforms don't suit me.

Well, if dumbshit you don't care

to give something new a try,



Just sail your ship by.



Found you storm-tossed, off the whale's roads,

seaweed-necklaced, all soiled and green.

Led you uphill. I fed you plenty.
Your mates drank with my best fifteen.



But once you saw you wouldn't rule me

you pulled out all the stops to fool me,

with flattery only to confound me.

Then deflowered all the bounty!



Look, if you're too scared to bear

to open one spare blue eye,



Just sail your ship by.



Oh, look at you! Look at you! You dress like a pirate! a devil!

Well, I work another level

Some might call higher. But I ain't talking height.

I've just found fire's better used for light.

Heads up, all you bankrolled babes, here's a beam to blast your astrolabes!



And if you dare not even spare

One minute bare spot in your mind



Sail your ship by.
