Pre Chorus

She rides the waves

With effortless grace

As some idiot

Paints

Jesus saves

Over her name

 

Chorus

She was known

With affection

As the

Dirty Little Secret

Captain says

Ain’t got no regrets

She is there for the taking

Ship breaking

 

Verse 1

Made by

Magnificent men

Out of

Fire and Steel

The world is full

Of good intentions

And yes

She is beautiful

 

She is made

To last a lifetime

Like the hollow ground

Of the Lisbon Lions

Sometimes

All good things

Must come to an end

 

Verse 2

He worked all

His life

Building the

Queen of the seas

And I hope that the

Empire

Admire his work

Now that he is pushing up the daisies

 

She smells

Of lavender

And a hint of

Vermouth

Cryin over the

Cadaver

As a man of the cloth

Couldn’t quite

Get the words

Out of his mouth

 

M8

We admire the men

Who build these creations’

Spare a dime and a thought

For the scrapyard dogs

Who make it all go away

Because someone has to

Clean up the shit

Once you are done with it
