marissa nadler - guns on the sundeck lyrics
[verse 1]
the queen mary crossed
over one thousand times
saw forty+nine deaths
and four babies cry
[verse 2]
one of the true great ocean liners
painted up for the sea to find her
found her home at the grand atlantic
people looking for something romantic
many came from far a wide
just to glimpse her crossing the tides
[chorus]
“i miss the ocean,” she said
“it’s nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people”
[verse 3]
they painted her gray
when she left for the war
guns on the sundeck
and kicked to the shore
she lost so much of her great grandeur
but her colors some day would shine once more
[chorus]
“i miss the ocean,” she said
“it’s nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people”
[verse 4]
at the time she was back
people were flying
the speed of the plane
was too satisfying
[verse 5]
she spent her days
growing old in the haze
and ghosts took over
this dark poor place
[chorus]
“i miss the ocean,” she said
“it’s nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people”
[verse 6]
pedder died in ’66
you can still hear him banging
in the cellar of the ship
fall of ’67 was her last hurrah
then they painted her up like a movie star
[chorus]
“i miss the ocean,” she said
“it’s nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people”
[verse 7]
she’s resting now as a boat hotel
in southern california
poltergeists and teams of psychics
can’t seem to break or lure her
[verse 8]
on the decks a mystery
as the air went cool
“i heard footsteps and the screaming
there’s phantoms in the pool”
[verse 9]
“i saw what i saw
there was n0body there
there was a woman watching
she was sitting in that chair”
[chorus]
“i miss the ocean,” she said
“it’s nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people
nice in the sun
but i need a break
from the dead people”
