Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, look [Verse 1: Jam Baxter] She crawled out of my bed and into my latest scribblings And slid through the pages, slipping on faded synonyms Wriggling in script, her innocent hips swivelling Nibbling fried strips of his image, her skin glistening, wet (Wet) Sweat sweat remnants of a tribal summer She might as well have been French kissing a vinyl cover Cardboard lover with a chewy human centre And a thousand foul flavours of dementia Remember that stage rants fades on monosyllabic mornings Poorly-painted smiles on monochromatic drawings Sleep to a soundtrack of my often-erratic snoring And awake to a crowd of flies applauding Cavorting on perches precarious A legion of freaks sip gin in my brain's backstage areas Tear me a new mouth, she can tie her tongue tightly Till my gilded gold replica's scented and scribbed nicely An unsightly sight, a partner inside a strident master In a crushed velvet tank with a live piranha Meet tonight's disaster (Here she is) and ain't she pretty? Lock-jawed sailor [chews?] beating a deflated dinghy [Chorus 1: Cate Ferris] I wish I were a sailor on the sea With all the sea birds flying after me The stars would alter course at my decree If I were a sailor [Instrumental Break] Chk-chk, you weren't listening You weren't listening Yeah, alright [Verse 2: Dizraeli] Please trust me: you can't trust me I wear a hat to bed and the inside of my head's ugly You don't want me, you want the other me From the stage portrayal, you were chasing vapour trails The real me rolls with a crew of one multiplied Bedfellows with a stupid drunk poltergeist Fuckin' up my workspace, but he's writing all my rhymes for me My life is borderline tawdry Caught in my story, you don't want a bigger chapter I'm a bunch of wankers, only one of me's a rapper Course, I'm just the man to be your skinny dip companion Capable of dancing with a limited abandon But my looks of love are as shallow as a grave is I conjure feeling by imagining you naked I tumble easily in passionate embraces But once the semen's out, I'm dashing for the gate or Scrabbling for pages to fit this scene I will turn you into a sick sixteen With a middle and an ending and a stiff-stitched seam Isn't it amazing where a pissed kiss leads? (Isn't it amazing? I said, isn't it amazing?) [Chorus 1: Cate Ferris & Dizraeli] I wish I were a sailor on the sea With all the sea birds flying after me The stars would alter course at my decree If I were a sailor [Chorus 2: Cate Ferris & Dizraeli] I wish I were a rooster on the run My song would chase the shadow from the sun I'd make these young hens mothers, every one If I were a rooster [Outro: Dizraeli & Cate Ferris] I wish I were a sailor on the sea I wish I were, I wish I were, I wish I were a sailor With all the sea birds flying after me I wish I were, I wish I were, I wish I were a sailor The stars would alter course at my decree (I wish I were, I wish I were) I wish I were, I wish I were, I wish I were a sailor If I were a sailor I wish I were, I wish I were, I wish I were a sailor
