x4
Verse 1
I'm sailing the seas of red wine
I'm strumming this nonsense tune
Add my voice to a rebel serenade
Echoin' off a waxin' moon
Intro x2
Verse 2
And I've crumpled our paper captain
Now who will lead this swarthy crew?
Tear the teeth off the gears, keep 'em as souvenirs, boys!
The world needs a few good mutineers now
Chours
Sometimes I slumber on a bed of roses
Sometimes I crash in the weeds
One day a bowl full of cherries
One night I'm suckin' on lemons and spittin' out the seeds
[repeat intro]
Verse 3
I am the fat, native, skinny-dippin', semi-professional tourist
A gold watch at the bottom of the sea
Tis time I depose of those petty tyrants
One on the throne, one inside me
Chorus
[repeat intro]
Verse 4
Bring on the change. Let's keep it simple now
Don't confuse your wants with your needs
Believe in love (love!), forsake your greed
And give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
Give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
Give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
Give away what you want to receive
