Sailor's Warning

from People In Hell Want Ice Water by Akrasia

/

lyrics

the day bob dylan came to bethlehem
played this wheels on fire
absolutely sweet marie
i stayed home, washed my clothes for the morning
it was november
seven days before thanksgiving

red skies in the morning
sailor's warning
got up too early, drank black coffee
crawled back into bed with you

and the light came in
where the curtains weren't so there
and your skin was white like an angel
and you leaned in close
whispered in my ear
today
is the day
the world will end

god knows we try
god knows that we try
to have a good time, baby
have a good time, baby
grainsquall undertow
queen of the pyramids
mathematic atheist
crucifix between your breasts

and the light came in
where the curtains weren't so there
and your skin was white like an angel
and you leaned in close
whispered in my ear
today
is the day
the world will end

the day bob dylan came to bethlehem
played this wheels on fire
absolutely sweet marie
i stayed home
it was november
seven days before thanksgiving

and the light came in
where the curtains weren't so there
and your skin was white like an angel
and you leaned in close
whispered in my ear
today
is the day
the world will end
