|
| I used to be a sailor
|
| Who sailed across the seas
|
| But now I’m just an island
|
| Since they took my boat away from me
|
| Oh no
|
| I don’t like being stationary
|
| I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
|
| I sit and rot behind these padded walls
|
| Hoping one day they’ll fall
|
| And set me free
|
| He wrote his epitaph
|
| He wrote his eulogy
|
| It said «I think that I can die now
|
| For my true love won’t come for me»
|
| Oh no
|
| I don’t like being stationary
|
| I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
|
| I sit and rot behind these padded walls
|
| Hoping one day they’ll fall
|
| And set me free
|
| I used to be a sailor
|
| Who sailed across the seas
|
| But now I’m just an island
|
| Since they took my boat away from me
|
| Oh no
|
| I don’t like being stationary
|
| I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
|
| I sit and rot behind these padded walls
|
| Hoping one day they’ll fall
|
| And set me free
|
| Set me free
|
| Set me free
|
| Set me free |
