lyrics

here sits captain alex at the bow
seafoam greening out the mouth
ciggy's always pointing to the south
he knows where to go now

imagine that
contact
with a land so tall and flat
things had changed
we heard them say
on your way

wing-clipped parsons circle, scream, and shout
ice cream cake coolin down the mouth
capt. alex sees one half the bout
takin his time

imagine that
contact
with a land so tall and flat
things had changed
we heard them say
on your way

one tall buck-toothed serpent at the pass
scales like shiny earrings crack the mast
tumbling fortunes come and rain on down
we'd sleep all day but we don't know how
