Port Isaac's Fisherman's Friends - No Hopers Jokers & Rogues lyrics

rate me

Come, all you no hopers,

you jokers and rogues

we're on the road to nowhere,

let's find out where it goes

It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows

Come, all you no hopers,

you jokers and rogues.

Leave all your furrows in the fields where they lie

Your factories and offices;

kiss them all goodbye

Have a little faith in the dream maker in the sky

There's glory in believing him

and it's all in the beholder's eye.

Turn off your engines and slow down your wheels

Suddenly your master plan loses its appeal

Everybody knows that this reality's not real

So raise a glass to all things past and celebrate how good it feels.

Awash on the sea of our own vanity

We should rejoice in our individuality

Though it's gale force, let's steer a course for sanity
