Lyrics Shipwrecked - The Gothic Archies

Shipwrecked

I can’t think of a single thing I’d rather do
Than be cast away on an island with you
No, I can’t think of anything more heavenly
Than to have you shipwrecked on a tropical island with me
Shipwrecked with you
Shipwrecked with you
I can’t think of a single thing I’d rather do
Than be cast away on an island with you
Far from distractions and matters of state
We can quit smoking and quickly lose weight
Sleeping till noon and then staying up late
At latitude zero and longitude eight
I am a gentleman;
should you get hurt
I’ll make a tourniquet out of my shirt
You needn’t do much, just sit there and flirt
And if it looks drizzly, I’ll build us a yurt
I can’t think of a single thing I’d rather do
And that’s why I had to get rid of the crew
So I lopped off their heads and dropped them in the sea
Just to have you shipwrecked on a tropical island with me
Shipwrecked with you
Shipwrecked with you
I can’t think of a single thing I’d rather do
And that’s why I decapitated the crew
How could I know there’s no island nearby?
If I don’t eat something soon, I’ll just die
I wouldn’t eat you, oh, never, not I!
So let’s catch a shark and I’ll make us a pie
What shall we use for bait?
Lend me a hand
I’ll sew it back on when we get to land
But if the shark takes it, that would be grand
Because we won’t starve to death, you understand
I can’t think of a single thing I wouldn’t do
To end up shipwrecked on an island with you
No, there’s nobody I wouldn’t kill, nobody
Just to have you shipwrecked on a tropical island with me
Shipwrecked with you
Shipwrecked with you
I can’t think of a single thing I wouldn’t do
To end up shipwrecked on an island with you again
