Violent Femmes — See My Ships lyrics

Lyrics

See my ships
They are sailing in and out of the harbour
Will they go together or must they stay apart
Yes I know it’s in my heart
Surely you see what’s inside of me Jesus is coming soon
I can hear Gabriel blow his trumpet tune
This I know our lord is coming soon
Mercy mercy me Marvin Gaye was shot by his father
O my father have mercy on me Cold kane O my cheap thrill
O my shame for Cain and the devil
Momma I need water I’m thirsty
Surely you see what’s inside of me
