Sailors count on the water They think they'll measure, they think they'll know Behavior that would seem awkward You'll let your hair down, you're letting go You think you're right, why do you bother? Why do you bother when you're so right? These novelties doing me favors It's good you're pleased doing me favors Answers, we've sailed beyond answers Caught in your tide pool, you're letting go But these sailors count on the water
They think they'll measure, they think they'll know So you know you're right, why do you bother? Why do you bother when you're so right? These novelties doing me favors It's good you're pleased doing me favors I'll measure water, I'll measure the wind That's all I can do, that's all I can do And if you seem, would you remind them That they know nothing, that they know nothing?
