The Drunken Boat - Simon Joyner[00:00:00]

Laid on my back in the drunken boat[00:00:21]

I tops of passing trees[00:00:26]

Costumed in craning rubber masks[00:00:31]

Locust bitten leaves[00:00:37]

Clouds beyond they crouched by too[00:00:42]

Only at half speed[00:00:48]

Memory drank from the horizon[00:00:52]

Memory drank from the horizon[00:00:58]

Memory drank from the horizon[00:01:03]

While my eyes dried breeze[00:01:06]

I was fleeing the bleeding festival[00:01:20]

The circus on dry land[00:01:25]

Trial was finally over there[00:01:30]

And I still had both my hands[00:01:35]

I only lifted a loaf of bread[00:01:41]

They said I'd stolen someone's child[00:01:46]

Now my days are spent out in the open[00:01:51]

Days are spent out in the open[00:01:57]

Days are spent out in the open[00:02:02]

While my dreams bounced around the prison yard[00:02:06]

Salty waves that blend and break[00:02:15]

Will take me to my home[00:02:19]

I let go of the rope[00:02:24]

And cut the anchor[00:02:29]

Sunburned path of foam and tide[00:02:35]

On a bed of morning mist[00:02:40]

Has lured my drunken boat[00:02:45]

Into the water[00:02:49]

Seabirds flew forward across the sun[00:03:11]

Wings woven to the gales[00:03:16]

Syncronized dance they'd always known[00:03:21]

Even before they crawled from their shells[00:03:26]

I asked the boat Will you care me[00:03:31]

Until the wind chews up your sails[00:03:36]

And night grew black gulls attacked[00:03:41]

Night grew black gulls attacked[00:03:47]

Night grew black gulls attacked[00:03:52]

And pecked it full of stars[00:03:57]

I flowed finally to the sea[00:04:09]

I begun on the longest river[00:04:14]

Where I watched my life stand still behind me[00:04:19]

To be eaten by the rain and the kudzu[00:04:24]

And now I was splashing passed the point[00:04:29]

Of grief or even hunger[00:04:35]

Just as I closed my eyes to sleep[00:04:39]

Just as I closed my eyes to sleep[00:04:44]

Just as I closed my eyes to sleep[00:04:49]

Lightning cracked the swollen mirror[00:04:54]

Salty waves that blend and break[00:05:02]

Will take me to my home[00:05:06]

I let go of the rope[00:05:11]

And cut the anchor[00:05:16]

Sunburned path of foam and tide[00:05:22]

On a bed of morning mist[00:05:26]

Has lured my drunken boat[00:05:31]

Into the water[00:05:36]

Woke up on a drifting plant[00:06:02]

Shackled to a splinter[00:06:07]

Faces frowned in the clouds above[00:06:13]

A calm followed the disaster[00:06:17]

I had no water nor any crumbs[00:06:22]

And I was shaken by my own laughter[00:06:27]

Why waste time learning to swim[00:06:32]

Why waste time learning to swim[00:06:38]

Why waste time learning to swim[00:06:43]

When it's how you float that matters[00:06:46]

What else can I tell you friend[00:07:00]

Course I didn't live[00:07:05]

My story is an apparition[00:07:09]

Another sailor's myth[00:07:15]

But don't let the steadfast earthworm catch you[00:07:19]

Sleeping on the ground[00:07:25]

Lay down with the drunken boat[00:07:29]

Lay down with the drunken boat[00:07:35]

Lay down with the drunken boat[00:07:39]

Where gold is scattered all around[00:07:43]

Salty waves that blend and break[00:07:52]

Will take me to my home[00:07:56]

I let go of the rope and cut the anchor[00:08:01]

Sunburned path of foam and tide[00:08:11]

On a bed of morning mist[00:08:15]

Has lured my drunken boat into the water[00:08:20]
