Dignity (尊严) - Deacon Blue[00:00:00]
There's a man i meet walks up our street[00:00:18]
He's a worker for the council[00:00:22]
Has been twenty years[00:00:24]
And he takes no lip off nobody[00:00:27]
And litter off the gutter[00:00:29]
Puts it in a bag[00:00:31]
And never seems to mutter[00:00:33]
And he packs his lunch in a "sunblest" bag[00:00:36]
The children call him "bogie"[00:00:38]
He never lets on[00:00:40]
But i know 'cause he once told me[00:00:42]
He let me know a secret about the money in his kitty[00:00:45]
He's gonna buy a dinghy[00:00:49]
Gonna call her dignity[00:00:52]
And i'll sail her up the west coast[00:01:03]
Through villages and towns[00:01:06]
I'll be on my holidays[00:01:08]
They'll be doing their rounds[00:01:10]
They'll ask me how i got her i'll say "i saved my money"[00:01:12]
They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity[00:01:17]
And i'm telling this story[00:01:33]
In a faraway scene[00:01:35]
Sipping down raki[00:01:38]
And reading maynard keynes[00:01:40]
And i'm thinking about home and all that means[00:01:42]
And a place in the winter for dignity[00:01:47]
And i'll sail her up the west coast[00:02:01]
Through villages and towns[00:02:03]
I'll be on my holidays[00:02:05]
They'll be doing their rounds[00:02:07]
They'll ask me how i got her i'll say "i saved my money"[00:02:10]
They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity[00:02:14]
Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up[00:02:49]
Yeh set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again[00:02:53]
Set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up set it up[00:02:57]
Yeh set it up again set it up again set it up again set it up again[00:03:02]
And i'm thinking about home[00:03:06]
And i'm thinking about faith[00:03:15]
And i'm thinking about work[00:03:24]
And i'm thinking about how good it would be[00:03:33]
To be here some day[00:03:38]
On a ship called dignity[00:03:42]
A ship called dignity[00:03:45]
That ship[00:03:49]
