william finn - set those sails (1985) lyrics
[goldberg]
the world is round
there’s a key to every door
that’s what our hero found
nothing is for nothing
and a new land is a new land to explore
not just paths you retrace
i’m talking mountains and sp-ce
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails [ladies]
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
watch me close
close your eyes
i am living proof that cowards
still can rise
you might tell me you’re a victim
you might get what you deserve
but, i won’t excuse
[ladies]
boy, i can’t excuse
[goldberg]
a boy who’s lost his nerve
o lord set sail
be preparing for a fall
stay clear of love and jail
lovers don’t go hungry
and the appet-te of young men counts for all
lord, it’s rough in the sack
kids live and learn to attack
[wife and sweetheart]
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
[goldberg]
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never fails
[goldberg continues to riff gospel style]
hey, i love you
set those sails
a good man never…
[goldberg]
a good man never fails…
a good man never…
[all three]
fails
