Oh it's like a storm at sea
|
And everything is lost,
|
And the fretful sailors calling out their woes,
|
As to the waves they're tossed.
|
|
Oh they are all gentlemen,
|
And never will they know
|
If there is a reason each of them must go,
|
To join the cruel flow.
|
|
And it'll take a long, long time.
|
It'll take a long, long time.
|
It'll take a long, long time.
|
Oh it'll take such a long, long time.
|
|
There is no need for rules,
|
There's no-one to score the game
|
And there is nobody living in this town
|
As even knows its name.
|
|
Oh it'll take such a long, long time.
|
It'll take a long, long time.
|
It'll take a long, long time.
|
A long, long time.
