Canoe |
The milk from mother’s breast |
Gave you the start, that was best |
Food on your face, your hair a mess |
Flying colours, life’s little tests |
Confident and strong, stickin' out your chest |
The best to come, the worst a guess |
Am I livin' a lie? |
I ask me, myself, and I |
'Cause everybody knows, courage comes and goes |
Brother, hold on for the next supply |
To thine own self, be true |
In this life it’s all up to you |
You paddle your own canoe |
You paddle your own canoe |
Your own canoe! |
Do, Do, Do, Do, Do, Do |
Your own canoe! |
Do, Do, Do, Do, Do, Do |
Eddies and kicks, rapids turn six |
Then you remiss, chances you missed |
Wind hits your sails, start to prevail |
Suddenly assailed, wind, rain and hail |
You just hit your stride, bride by your side |
It’s a smooth ride, systems collide |
It’s your first real strife, pretty little life |
Change overnight, real fuckin' fight |
Times shuck and jive, odds spike and dive |
Hornets now fully out of the hive |
This too shall pass, ride it out on your raft |
You just never know how long these things will last |
Last, last, last, last |
Am I livin' a lie? |
I ask me myself and I |
'Cause everybody knows, courage comes and goes |
Brother hold on for the next supply |
I’m not gonna ride with you |
Mister I ain’t following you |
No matter what you say, promise or do |
Talk until your face is blue |
To thine own self, be true |
In this life it’s all up to you |
You paddle your own canoe |
You paddle your own canoe |
Your own canoe! |
Do, Do, Do, Do, Do, Do |
Your own canoe! |
Do, Do, Do, Do, Do, Do |
I’m in the middle of a jungle man, I’m right in the throngs |
All kinds of little animals yelling, telling me I’m wrong (you're wrong) |
Okay maybe they’re right? |
Nah, should say sorry to myself |
Those itty-bitty fucks can’t fuck up my good mental health |
The winds of change are so strong, man they need names |
Like tornadoes, cyclones and hurricanes |
