Rachel Sermanni - Sea Oh See (The Pirate Song) lyrics

rate me

I pulled the plug,

I travelled down the drainpipe.

You'll find a note by the bath to say goodbye.

And though they called my name,

I flushed them from my senses

These tunnels were vast, I sped by the rats to the sea.

Oh, see; the stars alight for me

As the sky unfolds,

I was not told of such beauty,

Such beauty.

Spy the red horizon, I was caged but now I run

I row toward a rising sun;

A Soulboat on the waves.

And I will hoist the skull and bones

Tell ships in the night 'don't come near,

I have a knife and I have no fear.

If you carry word from the shore,

I don't need them anymore.

I'm a pirate now.'

And oh, how gold it fills my chest

It glows like the sun,

It's mine and mine alone,

You cannot touch my new beauty. You cannot touch it.

She fled, alone.

Lost her boat in a storm, the glowing sunk like a stone.

And the stars no longer cared;

She didn't look up anymore, she hadn't stared up in

years.

And at dawn I must think of her,

Throw the pearls back in the sea.
