keyes - the island of diamond rock lyrics

is there anything as crazy as the british navy
declaring an island’s a ship in their fleet?
the island of diamond rock once got assigned a spot
as their first sloot made of stone in the sea

so we’ll stay right here with the wind in our hair
not cause we’re moving it’s just from the air
our vessel is earth and itself is its berth and
we don’t say “land ho” cause we’re already thеre

then came a day whеn our frigate slash cave
was under attack when the french came to call
we tried to maneuver but all of our moves were
thwarted by not being mobile at all

so we had to leave, but we didn’t grieve
even as diamond rock faded from view
cause we realized that no matter the size
wherever we stand can be watercraft too

so i’ll hoist the mainsails if you swab the ground
on a ship that’s a rock that cannot move around
and i’ll chart a course (where?) to right here of course
cause our boat is a land mass that’s this locale bound
so we’ll stay right here with the wind in our hair
not cause we’re moving it’s just from the air
our vessel is earth and itself is its berth and
we don’t say “land ho” cause we’re already there

so when i’m growing old
my skin’s getting cold
i’ll still always think of the sea
and how it came close to the shore of my boat
the island’s the right ship for me
the island’s the right ship for me
