toiler on the sea

Singer:stranglers, the

i had a woman ship

i took her overseas

she left her hull unlocked

i had to find a dock

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

we didn't use cruel words

to navigate cruel seas

the wind was biting hard

at times i had to scream

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

and when we reached the land

we went aground on the rocks

became a wreck in the sand

became a home for a flock

we ventured overland

fought with the aliens

the young ones used their hands

pointed the way to a flock

a flock of seagulls!

a flock of seagulls!

then we retraced our steps

rebuilt the woman ship

i took her back up north

i lost her in the fog

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler on the sea

i was a toiler

i was a toiler

i was a toiler

on the sea

on the sea

i was a toiler

i was a toiler

on the sea

i was a toiler

a toiler

a toiler
