Topless On The Deck

Forget aeroplane
Forget railroad train
Don’t catch on the bus
Your car throw away
Get in a trip
On a ship
That for miles
Break the time and the sky
And the waves and the storms
Have sex on the deck
Topless on the deck
Recycle your mind
Get high and much high
The stereo plays
“When the ship comes in”
You say to her
I’ve just dreamed I was brother
Of Rainer Fassbinder and Daniel Pintchbeck
Topless on the deck
This ship will not sink
This ship will survive
Till you happy say: Land Ho!
The stars and the sky
And the waves and the storms
Are things that gonna make you
Forget aeroplanes
Forget railroad trains
Don’t catch on no busses at all
Go floating around
You say to him I read two thousand books
Almost one for each year
Since Jesus was born
Since Jesus was born
Never never more
Topless on the deck
