Lyrics:
|
|
One strange land
|
Was built from the sea
|
Put a crown to the castle
|
No strange land
|
Could break the glass
|
That cuts all the cats down
|
I heard the captains voice
|
No choice to listen up
|
To your masses
|
I heard the captain's voice
|
Like a whistle in the breeze
|
|
I'm going to the coast of Manhattan
|
With a bag full of blues
|
And a yellow canary
|
Captain he spoke
|
In a voice from the Ivory Coast
|
Saying there's no passion in perfection
|
My son
|
|
Pull the flag down
|
Let dust settle back
|
On the rose-colored glasses
|
Pull the flag down
|
And watch it whistle in the breeze
|
One last hope that lies
|
Like a monkey that flies
|
To the scent of molasses
|
One last hope that lies
|
I watch it whistle to the Bees
|
