| It's
not very far A mere stone's throw away From the quay in the city You walk round by the wall They built in the depression The sea wall of stone The tide is rolling in over a small rock I used to fish on with the Old Man I get a warm feeling looking across the bay Sun's going down Dressed in black l'm sweating in my shoes It's a hot humid gray day I've got fear- Tears welling in my eyes It comes as no surprise to me now I think about the lies we told Went down through the fishing nylon in the bay Laugh about it now I'm standing on Shaky Island Standing on Shaky Island Shaking me down to my bones Down where I belong To where I'm free I guess- Yes Feels like the Motherland, The Fatherland- Got a father buried on the hill With a better view than I I'm standing on Shaky Isles I have my head down I've seen so much of the ground lately I look up- It's all a glaze And when your heart is aching This bad baby I guess that's what it feels like to Belong anyway Standing on Shaky Island Standing on Shaky Island Shaking me down to my bones Down where I belong To where I'm free I guess- Yes Feels like the Motherland, The Fatherland- Got a father buried on the hill With the best view in town I'm standing on Shaky Isles I have my head down I've seen so much of the ground lately I look up- It's all a glaze And when your heart is aching This bad baby I guess that's what it feels like to Belong anyway Standing on Shaky Island Standing on Shaky Island Snaking me down to my bones Down where I belong To where I'm free I guess- Yes Feels like the Motherland, The Fatherland- Take it anyway you can With the best view in town I'm standing on Shaky Isles Standing on Shaky Isles With the
best view in town |
