christine lavin - turn this ship around lyrics

there’s a storm on the horizon
skies are bl+stery and grey
all hands on deck
anchor’s aweigh
the captain says full steam ahead
you can trust in me
now we’re hangin’ on for dear life
between the devil and the deep blue sea

his crew are all landlubbers
his sons and his daughter
none of them has spent time
on this kind of water
he’s never piloted a ship
he does not want advice
as he heads into the storm
i guess he’d rather roll the dice

when it all goes wrong
we can’t say we weren’t warned
when it all goes wrong
when we’re overtaken by the storm
when it all goes wrong
when he drives this ship aground
we’ll throw captain and crew overboard . .
then turn this ship around
better batten down the hatches
as the ship of state will drift
we never know exactly
when and how his mood will shift
he can’t focus on the ocean
he can’t focus on the land
our captain’s so distracted
by what’s tweeting in his hand

pirates lurking on the waves
hackers in the wires
loved the way he’d jab his finger
when he said “you’re fired!”
as if those words entitled him
to lead this bloodless coup
i look forward to the day
we say those words to you

when it all goes wrong
we can’t say we weren’t warned
when it all goes wrong
when we’re enveloped by the storm
when it all goes wrong
when he drives this ship aground
we’ll throw captain and crew overboard
and turn this ship around
ok we’ll throw you life preservers
so you will not drown
but we’re gonna throw you overboard
then turn this ship around!
