lyrics

THE SHIP OF MY DREAMS IS LOST NOW
THE MAIN SAIL’S RIPPED AND SHREDDED
THE COMPASS HAS GONE HAYWIRE
I CAN’T TELL WHERE I’M HEADED
THE ROCKS, THEY TOOK THE RUDDER
I’M FLOATING AIMLESSLY
AND THE FIGUREHEAD’S SMASHED
BY A CANNONBALL BLAST
AND SHE’S DRIFTING IN SPLINTERS
ON THE SEA

THE SUN IS SOMEWHERE OUT THERE
CASTING A CLOUDY GLOW
BUT THE GALLEY SLAVES ARE OBLIVIOUS
ASLEEP IN THE KEEP DOWN BELOW
AS THE CABIN BOY READS LORD BYRON
AND SIRENS GET THE REST OF THE CREW
AND THE CAPTAIN COLLECTS
DRIFTWOOD STATUETTES
THAT ARE ALL JUST SPLINTERS OF YOU

SPLINTERS OF YOU
ALL SPLINTERS OF YOU
ONLY SPLINTERS

THE SHIP OF MY DREAMS IS LOST NOW
BUT IT’S NOT A TOTAL WRECK
THE CAPTAIN’S GONE MAD
BUT IT’S NOT SO BAD
THERE’S ALWAYS A PARTY ON DECK
THE FUN NEVER ENDS
I’VE GOT LOTS OF FRIENDS
AND LOVERS, I’VE HAD A FEW
THAT’S A HELL OF A LOT
AND I LOVE ALL I GOT
BUT IT’S ALL JUST SPLINTERS OF YOU

SPLINTERS OF YOU
ALL SPLINTERS OF YOU
ONLY SPLINTERS

ALL ONLY SPLINTERS OF YOU

From Legendary Sons of Crack Daniels to Purgatory Hill &back, i now live and work projex out of the Holiday Music Motel in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. ... more
