Sea Lion lyrics

Artist  : Sage Francis 
Song : Sea Lion



 Send "Sea Lion" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

The force of my love was strong.  The sea lion
lay down long.  Song in the air.  Why should
singer care?  When singer can be among song.



Ma, Ma--look what i did, Ma.  Look what i did to
my hands, I broke 'em.

You gave me the stone, gave me the chisel, didn't
say how to hold 'em.

Didn't say to give away every piece of the puzzle
'til i was left with nothin'.

But i took it upon myself to crush it up and
distribute the dust.

Get in the bus.  Hop in the van.  Jump in the
water.  Crawl to the land.

Build another castle out of sand.  Break it down
and then get into the saddle again.

I'm going city to city - i'm already lost.  Tell
the boss who is new in town.

I'll ride this horse 'til it it bucks me off and
i'm forced to shoot it down.

I'll take him out for some gasoline.  Trade this
cow for some magic beans.

Gonna make mom proud of the deals that I made,
'cause I'm just a modern day Johnny Appleseed

But i'm glad that I never passed the genes, and I
never put down the axe.

Piano man got a checkered dance floor to grace
and a painful look on his face.

'Cause the crowd is packed and the louder they
clap 

the less he is able to make the connection
between what he sees

when he hears certain notes and the hurt that is
shown in his facial expression.  Ahhhhhh.

I don't need your "go ahead" to go
ahead.  No, I know no one said it was gonna be
easy,

but sweet jesus who wants to sleep with me?

Too many moves to learn.  Not enough people to
put 'em on.

Look it, mom!  No hands.  I built this suit of
armor with wooden arms.
