Amanda Palmer - The Boat Song lyrics

[Verse 1] My baby doll Could you just go Down to the sushi bar and get me what I want I know you know I want a car I want a dress [Verse 2] I want a bag that's big enough to fit My seven hundred friends [Pre Chorus] We're gonna need a miracle We're gonna need a plan We're gonna have to find a place to go We're out here in the water with our pockets full of sand And the sinking souls around us yelling No, no, no [Chorus] We're gonna need a bigger boat For all this sh** We can't just go around pretending Everyone is gonna fit [Hook] I know I told you I promised it But I have always been a liar Sorry, life's a f**ing b**h [Verse 3] I want a castle In the country I want a loft downtown I wanna call you When I want you Honey, I don't want you hanging around [Verse 4] And while you're out dear Grab me a church dear And not some strip mall sh** I'm talking real stained gla** [Verse 5] And my believers People with cla** I'm gonna hang out on my alter in my golden robe and crown Professing all my propaganda while they kiss my a** [Pre Chorus] We're gonna need a miracle We're gonna need a plan We're gonna have to find a place to go We're stuck here in a lifeboat with our amputated hands And our automated captain yelling Row, row, row [Chorus] We're gonna need a bigger boat For all this sh** We can't just go around pretending Everyone is gonna fit [Hook] I know I told you I promised it But I have always been a liar Sorry, life's a f**ing b**h [Chorus] We're gonna need a bigger boat For all this fish We're gonna murder the whole ocean With our f**ed up wish [Hook] I know i told you I promised it But I was lying when I promised And I've always been a liar [Outro] And you're not getting on this boat So f**ing live with it
