flotation toy warning - controlling the sea lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my own napoleon met his fate
with a smile on his face in summer time
by all accounts ventured he was running late
for a series of dates with his own lifetime
bemused by your ambush at his garden gate
his head was twisted by your nonsense rhyme
for i was he when we came to be
and i can’t always free all the hostages you take inside of me

[chorus]
and when it goes wrong
i sing my own song
it’s a sad song i’ll only sing for you
and, when i sing loud
it cuts the noise out
and only you remain, now
as the games end
like an old friend
i call the right one in
then there’s the strange case
that we both make
for keeping the out-takes in

[verse 2]
bye bye napoleon, i’ve boxed the tape
but it’s getting late, and i won’t make time
to re-run the chase scene, endless one-off takes
none of which make good on the finish line
send arthur wellesley my warm embrace
but i have his author on the other line
for that was me when this came to be
and i can’t always free all the hostages you take inside of me

[chorus]
and when it goes wrong
i sing my own song
it’s a sad song i’ll only sing for you
and, when i sing loud
it cuts the noise out
and only you remain, now
as the games end
like an old friend
i call the right one in
then there’s the strange case
that we both make
for keeping the out-takes in
