Blueberry Boat - The Fiery Furnaces[00:00:00]
Written by:Matthew Friedberger[00:00:01]
Pontoon put put with the tape on 10[00:00:57]
Dixie cup pink wine in the labor day sunshine[00:01:00]
I'm sliding the sunfish up through the wakes[00:01:06]
Coming up too quick making mistakes[00:01:10]
Quiet climb the chrome ladder in the front[00:01:17]
While they're all yawning under the awning[00:01:20]
Astro turf green hot to the touch[00:01:27]
Sneak open the cooler they've got too much[00:01:30]
Past taipei through the taiwan straits[00:02:48]
We sailed on in me and my mates[00:02:51]
It was my first time running my own ship[00:02:56]
But my buddies didn't care they didn't give me no lip[00:02:59]
So many times we've been side by side[00:03:06]
But I never carried a load with so much pride[00:03:10]
You see I'm from grand rapids and up my way[00:03:30]
We grow the best blueberries in the U.S of A.[00:03:33]
And when we pull into old H.K[00:03:38]
The little markets'll have something special next day[00:03:41]
At dawn I had a scotch and made them switch off the porn[00:03:48]
'Cause there's nothing that's dirty about the ocean in the morn[00:03:52]
The radar said nothing and nothing crossed my mind[00:04:12]
When they came starboard side up from behind[00:04:15]
Down below deck sip the south island sec[00:04:21]
Think when last put in port I was sorting the sort[00:04:24]
And then a girl caught my eye as she was waving goodbye[00:04:31]
Tell me my dear I said warm and sincere[00:04:38]
Who do you know on the ship[00:04:41]
And then she curled up her lip[00:04:43]
I don't know no one there yet but just wait see what you get[00:04:48]
Pop the top and drink your drop we'll never go home[00:04:56]
Curse and cry and why oh why we'll never go home[00:05:00]
We'll never go home we'll never go home[00:05:05]
The radar said nothing and nothing crossed my mind[00:06:11]
When they came starboard side up from behind[00:06:14]
I never saw them coming even though it was light[00:07:17]
They beat two of my men simply out of spite[00:07:20]
And then they came back to the helm kicked me over and said[00:07:27]
Do what we say or we'll kill you and your men[00:07:31]
I looked back at those pirates with their beady little eyes[00:07:52]
I gathered my courage and I could see their surprise[00:07:55]
When I said go ahead you could cut my throat[00:07:58]
But you ain't never getting the cargo of my blueberry boat[00:08:01]
It's sad and it's cold at the bottom of the sea[00:08:07]
But at least I got my blueberries with me[00:08:10]
