flanders & swann – sea fever lyrics
on the road that runs to the harbour wall
where the lubbering landsmen sleep
i hear a strange mysterious call
‘tis the call of the ocean deep
i must go down to the sea
to the sea in a rollocking boat
where the breakers roar
and the salt spray flies
and a sailoring man can stretch his eyes
why! here’s a boat. come let us set it afloat
hey ho! for the open sea
with a scudding sail and a sharp wind’s kiss
and i say to myself, say i, “why this!
this is the life for me”
with a tiller that kicks like a living thing
while the mainbrace sings on high
(sing on, old mainbrace)
i think whatever the sea may bring
ready, i’m ready am i
o to be riding high
in the t–th of a thundering gale
with the decks awash
and the bowsprit’s crack
as i bring her about on the starboard tack
why! here’s a gale
i must go down to the p–p
no thanks, i won’t have any soup
i seem to be suddenly taken queer
if somebody else would like to steer
i’m feeling o, o, o…
carry me back to the land
pebble, mud or sand
o to be back on the beach once more
on the still dry land
from the road that runs by the harbour wall
i gaze at the bounding main
and i hear that strange mysterious call
‘tis the call of the sea again
(o! not again! no!)
i must go down to the sea
to the sea in a rollocking boat
where the breakers roar
and the salt spray flies
and a sailoring man can stretch his eyes
thank god! no boat!
