作曲 : Devine | |
I cry at her bowl, dog's dying day | |
A bone in her bowl, a watery grave | |
See, I am a sailor, but I'm not so great | |
I keep fishin' for roadkill, passin' out on the waves | |
Shimmering sea, stretched end to end | |
A flickering bowl, A Shivering friend | |
See, that's Mr. Murphy, my leathery brave | |
He's whimpering "Taps" now, for his plank-walk grade | |
I've never been a joiner, no, I've quit every team I've been on | |
Now I'm crying in my coffee, that's not sea salt in my eyes | |
Cause me and Murphy, we have been through it, and I hate watching him die | |
(whistling) | |
So I wait for my wisdom, like I wait for my wife | |
Like I wait for a story, helps me wait out the night | |
Like when I was an archer, but I couldn't shoot straight | |
I broke all of ma's windows, I poked holes through her drapes | |
And I laugh to myself, but I can't tell you why | |
The hung-over sun, sneaks back in the sky | |
But Murphy went peaceful, he went decent and right | |
At least better than I will, when it's my turn to die | |
And I wear his collar on my wrist | |
And I bury him down at the beach | |
No crying, no coffin, just a body and a hole | |
No praying, no singing, no saving any souls | |
The only thing I'm saving, yeah | |
Is a bone inside a bowl |
