Three Boats Down From The Candy

Three boats down from the candy

Vacant deck chairs on a floodlit beach

Three boats down from the candy

Rollers coast invade the deepest sleep

Three boats down from the candy

Carnal dancer let their senses preach

It's a social disease, it's the new moral cancer

Don't think crying wolf will give you the answer

You ask for my love on the strength of a kiss

But can't you just play for experience?

I'm a poet, I'm a poet, I'm a minstrel, I'm a minstrel

I don't need your chains

Romance lies in ruin, let debauchery reign, let it rain

Wipe the tears from your eyes

Wipe the sweat from your thighs

Don't crawl to me with sentiment

My laughter drowns your cries

You're a memory trapped on Polaroid

A puppet drawn on celluloid

So drink the wine, confess your sin

Just flotsam in a silent void

Three boats down from the candy

I'll remember you

Three boats down from the candy

Much to much to lose

Three boats down from the candy

Those words were never true

Three boats down from the candy

I'll remember you

I'll remember you, I'll remember you
