So maybe another way would have been better
|
if you had been older or had known a thing or two before you set sail for the New World
|
|
Sail for the New World, mate
|
All this ships ahoy
|
Trouble is all of the things I hate
|
But I'm still a young boy
|
|
In the meantime a chance in the form of a light
|
Makes a man take a stance and dash his boat up on the rocks
|
in the dead of night
|
|
So what if you had been lucky then
|
What would it make you?
|
So there'd be a statue so people won't forget you set sail for the New World
|
|
Sail for the New World, mate
|
Let's not and say we did
|
Trouble comes and it seals your fate
|
As you turn into the skid
|
|
Sail for the New World, mate
|
All ships ahoy
|
Trouble comes when you graduate
|
But I'm still a young boy
|
