Boat or Swim Lyrics

Dance
By the boatdeck the air gets so fair
I wash dishes you comb your hair
Down the porthole shines a distant pier
Kiss goodbye my town
Fade through the bends of the middle-class code
Words are rude and easy sold
And gestures hard to decode
As smiles are bound
[Chorus: intro]

There goes the dizzy fever
Got some valium
You better take it easy
So dangerous
[Chorus]
Cold enough X2
In my body
Under my skin
All over the land
All the jokes
Had come to an end again
Heaten upX2
Like a party
Or so it seems
When pieces are set
All my jokes
Had come to an end again
Run
From drinking more
Turpentine bowls
From the likes of the dirtiest lane
To the gates of the golden reign
I've made my day

[Chorus: intro]
[Chorus]
