lyrics

IN DEEP OCEAN
Save your money or save your time
It’s getting hard to feel so brave
Being in love and trying to save
Actually for me, it’s like trying to ski in deep ocean

Take your life or take your boots
Staying wild and without roots
It’s a scandal you see
Pulling hairs from a tree
Actually for you, you should know who’s who
It’s a dead line

If it’s only up to me
Then everyone could live for free
But we mustn’t rock the boat
Even though you might as well cut off your throat
And if it’s only up to you
The spanking monkeys do it too
But we aren’t even close
Don’t forget the winded Taylor get your goat

It’s your talent or your looks
Your success story ain’t in books
There’s a method, you see, trying hard to agree
Lucky for you, you won’t have to screw for your supper

Then there’s one thing left to do;
bollocks to the P&Q
They are waiting there in line
Never knowing where the trip leads they are buying
If there’s one thing left to me, seven oceans left to ski
Once upon a midnight rock
We’re running out of places here to dock
