Mermaids And Slaves - Paul Heaton

Mermaids And Slaves - Paul Heaton
Written by：Paul Heaton
Baby let's drink and drive
Baby let's drink and drive
Drink till the conversation turns pink
And drive to the other side
Baby let's look and learn
Baby let's look and learn
Look till a certain feeling takes hold
And learn when the ready is burned
Let's fool and coerce the singer of verse
Died of insufferable pain
Let's fuel the dream every
Buckley or Dean was genius misjudged or insane
Let's drive over cliff
That maybe a riff
Maybe a rift as cursed
As the whole of our days
Let's put out to sea
Poor you and poor me
Poor you and poor me on
The rocks that crush mermaids and slaves
Baby let's duck and dive
Baby let's duck and dive
I duck till a major change in our luck
And dive if we wanna survive
Baby let's hit and run
Baby let's hit and run
Hit till you see the split of their lip
And run like the wind to the sun
Let's wrap up that notion
That selling is potion that greed is a good way to die
Take tragic mistake and crash into
Lake and sell it to folk passing by
Let's drive over cliff
That maybe a riff
That maybe a rift as cursed as the whole of our days
Let's put out to sea
Poor you and poor me
Poor you and poor me on
The rocks that crush mermaids and slaves
Let's drive over cliff
That maybe a riff
That maybe a rift as cursed as the whole of our days
Let's put out to sea
Poor you and poor me
Poor you and poor me on the rocks
That crush mermaids and slaves
