The Lure Of The Sea — текст песни (The Beautiful South)

(Heaton/Rotheray)
If I walk like a fool, I`ve walked like that since school
But maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Who knows the effect,
that whisky could`ve had on me
It could`ve been the lure of the sea

`Cause leather ain`t as strong as the weather
But leather can strangle any dream
And leather ain`t as strong as the weather
But leather took Curtis from me

Maybe it`s the lure of the sea,
maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Suicide`s just the anarchist that kicks down modesty
But maybe it`s the lure of the sea

Once I felt chained, and now, now I feel free
Maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Polo and Da Gama,
well those two had nothing on me
Could be I`m a sucker for the sea

`Cause silver, ain`t as quick as the tongue
But silver, took the M.L.K so young
And metal ain`t as strong as the petal
But metal left the verse unsung

Maybe it`s the lure of the sea,
maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Suicide`s just the anarchist that kicks down modesty
But maybe it`s the lure of the sea

Freedom`s taken a liking to me
Maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Look in my eyes `cause my belt`s broke free
Maybe it`s the lure of the sea
The Pirates Of Penzance,
they have nothing on me
Maybe it`s the lure of the sea

Maybe it`s the lure of the sea, maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Suicide`s just the anarchist that kicks down modesty
But maybe it`s the lure of the sea

Maybe it`s the lure of the sea, maybe it`s the lure of the sea
Suicide`s just the anarchist that kicks down modesty
But maybe it`s the lure of the sea
