	作词 : Partridge
	The man who sailed around his soul
	From East to West, from pole to pole
	With ego as his drunken captain
	Greed, the mutineer, had trapped all reason in the hold

	The man who walked across his heart
	Who took no compass, guide or chart
	To rope and tar his blood congealed
	When he found his self revealed ugly and cold

	And the sirens that sing
	By your nose with its ring
	They'll drag you in
	For your sins

	Now he sits all alone
	And it's no place like home
	It's empty skin
	A bag to keep life's souvenirs in
	The man who sailed around his soul
	The man who sailed around his soul

	The man who sailed around his soul
	Came back again to find a hole
	Where once he thought compassion and the truth
	Had laid to warm his freezing carcass on return

	The man who walked across his heart
	Was doomed to journey from the start
	Of every love affair he'd broken
	All the lies he'd ever spoken
	Tattooed on his arm
	And the jellyfish stings
	Even angels with wings
	Who look too deep
	And dare to peep

	Now he sits all alone
	Knowing flesh blood and bone
	Is everything
	He found the treasure he'd been seeking
	The man who sailed around his soul
