Song Name: Were Born For The Sea
Do you ever get the feeling that you don't fit in?
Do you ever get the feeling that you just can't win?
And i'm always thinking that i'm not quite free, it pisses me off, yeah it makes me angry
The coppers and the men in suits they just get me down
They make me want to take the plunge they make me want to drown
But even if i did, well who would care?
Because this existence is just a nightmare
Well my dad never taught me to swim
And for that yes i thank him
Cause this society is all win win win
I'd rather just go to the tyne
Dip my toes in the water below
And then i'll jump right in
So out i'd float into the north sea
Make my way past holland into germany
And there i'd get washed up on a bay, but don't you worry it'll be ok because some old couple will come and see, and shout "oh dear, is that a body?"
So i'd get in the papers for a little while, but then they'd lose interest and just put me on a pile. but no, i couldn't stay there long, i've got to keep moving, moving on
On my belly i will slither, and find my way into the nearest river
Because my dad never taught me to swim
And for that yes i thank him
Cause this society is all win win win
I'd rather just go to the tyne
Dip my toes in the water below
And then i'll jump right in
So i kept on floating, i was never done
Heading my way into the setting sun
But then well i couldn't believe my eyes - floating right there between the sea and the skies, well i thought i was alone, i thought it was just me, but then i saw thousands of other bodies
Cause we're the ones who didn't make it through, we didn't like work and we hated school
We never wore a suit, we never wore a tie, we never conformed, we always asked why
So we just keep moving, singing this song, holding hands and floating on and on and on
Because our dads never taught us to swim
And for that yes we thank them
Cause this society is all win win win
We'd rather just go to the tyne
Dip our toes in the water below
And then we'll jump right in
