lyrics

Danny‘s up in his mind,
Watching them lovely angles flying by,
Danny‘s up in the sky,
Smiling at everyone at first sight.

Grace is standing at the bar,
Watching the water pour into her glass,
Sweating all over the place,
Then feeling it in every pore of her face.

A flashing rush,
Of colorful air,
From her toes,
Up to her hair.

Oh I wish I was there!
Yeah you wish you were there!
But she was right there,
Right there, allright there.

Like Benjamin,
Who took the last bus to mars,
Headed out to fetch some stars,
And then walked along the harbour,
To the Riverside Bar.

But let‘s go back to the music,
To the ships magic turntable,
And gosh, she knows how to use it!
And lord, she knows how to fuse us!

A yelling from,
Beneath the bridge of boats,
Oh just good to know,
That this boat can‘t sink.

No we can‘t sink,
We can only drown,
We can only drown,
Or take of.

---

Danny‘s up in his mind,
He‘s floating on waves of singing sirens.
A scent of lilac,
hop and sweat,
Is dropping from the ship‘s deck,
A sweat and salty language.
Smiling at everyone,
He‘ll steer that boat,

Without any steering wheel.
