Down by the sea
I found your hidden treasure
Just you and me,
We overdosed on pleasureYonnies in the wind,
We're ruggin' up for winter
Putting out the bins
In cold and windy weatherDown by the docks
Live all the silent sea-ships
Crates are stored on blocks
Where now only the rats liveSail me down the river
Till we reach the shore
Diving into the center
Eating out the coreDown on the beach
Saluting Captain Benbow
Always out of reach
It's quiet when the tide's lowClimbing up the cliffs
You can see for miles far
The boat that ran adrift
Is sitting on the sandbarLaughing at the waves
That storm the river mouth
The ice is on the move now
Creeping north and southDown by the sea
I found your hidden treasure
Just you and me
We over-dosed on pleasureListen to your heart
Screamin' at the sky
Can't you feel it tremble?
Don't you wonder why?
