Sailors Tango

Heya! We’re taking a trip up to Burma
Got enough whiskey to last us the ride
And we only smoke the best Henry Clays
Had our fill of all the pretty lasses here
Yeah, we’re free and we’re bound to roam
Cos we’ve had it with the comforts of home!
If it ain’t Henry Clay, then we don’t take a puff
And this soapbox won’t take us past Burma
We don’t need no kind of a loving god
And we don’t need civility either!
So farewell suckers!
 
And the ship sails ahead, and they’re soon to arrive
And the loving god, he don’t show
Well, perhaps it’s a God that just doesn’t care
And if so, well that’s his problem!
So goodbye to home!
 
Shoutin “Not on your life!” and “If so, then what?”
“If something is missing, please tell me!”
“No finer emotions, not for a million bucks!”
“Just blow it out your ass!”
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
And everything’s as it shall be
And when everything’s over
it soon will start again
And the sea stays deep and blue
So, just have one more on me
Oh the sea is deep and blue
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
So deep and so blue
The sea is blue!
 
Heya! We’re thinking that we might catch a picture show
Sure, it costs too much but we don’t care a fig
If you see a gray hair, you rip it right out
After all, Folks like us need some kind of amusement
Cos there’s nothing that’s tying us down
No, there’s nothing that’s tying us down
No, we don’t spend much more than five cents on our smokes
And the dark rye bread don’t agree with our bellies
And the worries of others, that don’t worry us
Don’t got time to look harder in the mirror
Cos it ain’t worth a damn!
 
And thither they live and thus they enjoy
And a loving God, he don’t show
So, perhaps it is God that don’t care a fig
And if he does, I guess that’s his problem!
That’s his problem now!
 
With calls of “Not on your life!” and “If so, then what?”
“If something is missing, please tell me!”
“No finer emotions for a million bucks!”
“You can blow it out your ass!”
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
And everything’s as it shall be
And when everything’s over
it soon will start again
And the sea stays deep and blue
So here’s one more round on me
Oh the sea is deep and blue
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
So deep and so blue
The sea is blue!
 
Now all we need is for a storm to show up--
--Look there, yeah! It’s the docks of Burma
Hold up boys! It’s a pall of black clouds
Christ, and the waves are awful wild
Christ, we’ll all be devoured soon enough
Well, it looks as if we have to die
Yeah, it looks like we’re gonna die..
Shortly, the ship will sink right down to the bottom
Only the sharks will remember the drowned
Cheap cigars and crates of whiskey won’t be any help
“Where we’re going now, there’s no girls around to meet us”
And there’s only one call now, that’s goodbye!
Yeah there’s only one thing worth saying now, and that’s goodbye!
 
And the water rises up, devouring the ship
With no sight of a welcoming shoreline
Only a ship that don’t know how to swim
They must put up with unwelcoming shores
Yeah, here’s the real goodbye!
 
Suddenly, you don’t hear the big talk they talked before
No, now they’re only talking in whispers
Suddenly, they’re all babbling about “Our Father”
And then just as soon, they all go quiet
It’s only goodbyes!
And so ends our story, so now you should know
Though you shot your mouth off while you lived so long
But now when you stand before our Lord’s throne
Well then, you’re just shaking and shitting!
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
And everything’s as it shall be
And when everything’s over
it will not start again
Though the sea stays deep and blue
You won’t get no more from me
Oh the sea is deep and blue
Oh, the sea is deep and blue
So deep and so blue
The sea is blue!

The Enemy





My youth was but a tempest, dark and savage,
Through which, at times, a dazzling sun would shoot
The thunder and the rain have made such ravage
My garden is nigh bare of rosy fruit.
 

Now I have reached the Autumn of my thought,
And spade and rake must toil the land to save,
That fragments of my flooded fields be sought
From where the water sluices out a grave.
 

Who knows if the new flowers my dreams prefigure,
In this washed soil should find, as by a sluit,
The mystic nourishment to give them vigour?
 

Time swallows up our life, O ruthless rigour!
And the dark foe that nibbles our heart's root,
Grows on our blood the stronger and the bigger!

The day you and this planet disappeared





Trapped inside a steel cage, a pair of deep blue eyes
Stuck in this rotten world, where we were born
My heart was shut ice cold, the sky gray full of ash
Even so, I got to meet you
 

Your silver locks of hair were suddenly dyed red
We held so tightly in a warm embrace
My only purpose was protecting you, but still
Even so, you became a star
 

The lights they shine as bright as dying stars
I shall forget about you and this universe
'Please answer me' My voice hoarse as I call you
And my feelings, forever washed away
 

I walk under the sky caressed by the cold rain
Cut through the barren land, sharp as a blade
As if the countless stars were washed away by blood
That was the day you disappeared
 

The lights they shine as bright as dying stars
I shall forget about you and this universe
'Please answer me' My voice hoarse as I call you
And my feelings, forever washed away
 

So please forget, forget we ever met
And let me hear you and all of the stars above
'Please answer me' My voice hoarse as I call you
And my feelings, forever washed away
 

Please answer me...
 

Please look for me...
 

As we embrace I let out all my strength
And let the light engulf all that we know
Even my feelings will be washed away

When you go on a trip





When you go on a trip, you sometimes realize
What is important?
What is important?
 

When you go on a trip, you sometimes realize
Who is the person you love?
What is the thing you love?
 

Every time I meet myself
Everything passes
What is the thing that remains?
 

When you go on a trip, you sometimes realize
Every time I meet myself
That's why I'm a little scared
 

When you go on a trip, you sometimes realize
I want to meet myself
Today, I'm going on a trip again
 

Why do you show your face here?
Why do I remember those words here?
There are so many things I don't understand
I don't understand 'myself' the most
That's why I go on a trip
 

What is important?
Who is the person I love?

Like there are stars in the sky





Like there are stars in the sky
Like there's sand on the beach
There's only one thing in my heart
I had a small dream
 

Like the wind blowing east
Like the river flowing
With the passage of time
My one and only small dream has vanished
 

Lonely, lonely, staring at the stars
Alone, alone, covered in tears
Everything everything is
Although it's over
Everything around me
Although it has disappeared
 

Like a light rain in spring
Like dead leaves falling in autumn
It seems like everyone has that
It's just a change of seasons
