I'm undecided about you again
Mightn't be right that you're not here
It's double sided 'cause I ruined it all
But also saved myself
by never believing you dearEverything good I deem too good to be true
Everything else is just a bore
Everything I have to look forward to
Has a pretty painful and very imposing beforeOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsI have too been playing with fifty-two cards
Just 'cause I play so far from my vest
Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard
What could I do but spend my bestOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsAnd after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees
All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me
And in its wake appeared the touch and call of a different breed
One who set to get me wise and got me there and then got meAnd what a thing to know what could be instead
Oh what a blessed curse to see
Took the agenda from its place in my bed
Made a merry paramour of meOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Given the eyes to view it
As it goes by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
Then lettin' it go by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Given the eyes to view it
As it goes by the boardsOh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Given the eyes to view it
As it goes by the boards
