johnny flynn - barnacled warship lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
gotta get out, gotta shout, gotta sing
gotta dance, gotta jump, gotta run
think i’ll fight a war, i don’t know what for
but i’ll learn when i’ve got my gun

[pre-chorus 1]
well, i left home three days ago
i feel like going to bed
open the courts, and a new religion
burning through my head

burning through my head…

[verse 2]
made my way with the fusiliers
i even fought my way back home
but the front line shifted and my rifle got lifted
had to fight the war on my own

[pre-chorus 2]
well, i left home three days ago
i feel like going to bed
walking downtown gave me cold, cold fingers
and my feet were made of lead

my feet were made of lead…

[chorus]
i’ll just eat fruit
on your doorstep
i’ll just drink pailfuls
of rain

i’m but a barnacled
warship
singing the fighter’s refrain
singing the fighter’s…

[verse 3]
made my way with the salvation army
take them on with a tambourine
i’ll strike down sinners like the old gunslingers
smooth ’em out like margarine

[pre-chorus 1]
well, i left home three days ago
i feel like going to bed
open the courts and a new religion
burning through my head

burning through my head…

[instrumental]

[verse 4]
went to the gambling shop today
they had me five to one
heard a voice behind me say
“put down your bible and pick up your gun”

[pre-chorus 2]
well, i left home three days ago
i feel like going to bed
water downtown gave me cold, cold fingers
and my feet were made of lead

my feet were made of lead…

[chorus]
i’ll just eat fruit
on your doorstep
i’ll just drink pailfuls
of rain

i’m but a barnacled
warship
singing the fighter’s refrain
singing the fighter’s…
