I nearly died when you jumped in
|
But you had to drown before you could swim
|
All the people on the beach, they were so impressed
|
That they wanted to join you but no they wouldn¡¯t undress
|
Oh there, that wetness, splashed their skin
|
So they prayed for a whirlpool to pull you in
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
|
So they looked away and they tried to pretend
|
That it was for you, but no it wasn¡¯t for them
|
Now the fear of sinking remains in place
|
But it¡¯s this fear of failure that a real disgrace
|
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Let me be the one
|
Let me be the one
|
Let me be the one
|
Let me be the one
|
To get over you wall
|
To get over you wall
|
|
Heads in the sand, sea out of reach
|
Swept away by the games of the beach
|
Those people sat and watched your stand
|
While the wait of their fears pulled them underground
|
Will anyone learn from the stories that are told
|
Of the tribe who drown in a grave of gold
|
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
Ya ho
|
|
I see your heads down
|
Someone¡¯s calling
|
Put you heads down
|
Someone¡¯s drowning
|
Look up see what¡¯s fit for your eyes
|
Some escaping on someone drowning
|
|
Your head is underground
|
Your head is underground
|
Your head is underground
|
Your head is under the ground
|

Ya Ho
