Modest Mouse - Sugar Boats lyrics

[Modest Mouse - Sugar Boats lyrics]

This rock of ours is just some big mistake
And we will never know just where we go
Or where we have came from
These veins of mine are now some sort of fuse
And when they light up and my mind blows up
My heart is amused so
This heart of mine is just some sort of map
That doesn't care at all or worry
About where the hell you're at
But, you're right there

Well, I've been meaning to dismiss you
Yeah I have some plans to dismiss you
So stand by, by, by, by, bye bye
Wave goodbye, sugar boats!
As soon as you paint every last grain of sand
As you soon as you paint every star
In the sky, sky, sky, sky, sky, sky
Wave goodbye, sugar boats!
Well, I’m swatting at mosquitoes
As they’re orbiting me
I'm orbiting the sun and this goes
On and on and on, you see
This heart of mine is just some broke machine
And when it gets a-goin'
And it often gets a-goin'
It starts blowin' steam here we go again!

This rock of ours is just some big mistake
And we will never know just where we go
Or where we have came from
This watch of mine is like some sort of void
Cause when I look in, and I shouldn't look in
I, I see it swallow my time
Oh, no, there it goes!

Well, I ain’t getting on no fast plane
Hell, I ain’t getting on no stuffy train
Sugar boats on the Atlantic are fine
The sugar boats, they're just fine
I'll stand on the deck so you could see
I'll stand on the deck you
Could wave bye, bye, bye, bye
Here's the ghost that goes and
Waves bye, bye, bye, bye
I'm the ghost that goes and waves bye, bye
Bye
