lyrics

Spittle, foam, and bluster
Never met the muster
From a guilty chancer

Dredging up some old sins
So bored of this insurrection
With no unearned affection

Phantom warships
Crown the distance

Passing through
Passing through you

Wailing grave abandon
But I can’t hardly stand in
The wake of your deflection

Phantom warships
Still and listless
Silent fathoms
Spinning endless

Passing through
Passing through
You

When are you going to stay upright
Sinking bottles, day and night?
Cast aspersions just to hide
Your tender vessel’s battered pride
