the first light's kissed my eyes--it's time to breathe the shearing wind that strips the flesh from me so grab your weathered skins and boots and go is it the hell i fear or is it the sea? the working world's asleep an hour or more the barmen from the anchor calls the score jack sings the sea-song, chills me to the score drink up as it's time to lock the door well, fifteen years have passed, i'm still aboard now i brave the chaos of my family and all i think of is a world ashore is it life i abhor? is it the sea? well, the pain is dulling out a generation by and music fills my bones again, at last and pride inflates my chest and the tears come to my eyes to hear my children's children cry and i have often said that i would like to be dead in a shark's mouth with warm breath going under from woman sending thunder on two parts south and love is stripped and frayed and duty is delayed until next life and someone has my mind holding it so kind though it is my wife and my home is the sea my home is the sea look not for me because my home is the sea disaster flies upon me and i scream and you can see the house lights colored from the distance for a party is dream and tumble into me my arms unfold these seeds cause i am a strong man and god i love my tummy it's round and firm and funny cause that's what i am and my home is the sea my home is the sea and i am under your spell you will have me i reckon and the drowning of this town is a drowning that i welcome and i know nothing and am overjoyed i know nothing and am overjoyed i know nothing and am overjoyed well, god gave you life and thought and now it's ours to waste i have the finest love and the finest of tastes and with the sea in my lungs i am home |
