lyrics

Oh Boatswain, clear your name

In the night when he falls asleep he dreams about the wire
And when he wakes up in a familiar place
there's no one there to conspire

In the cargo boxes all around the docks the roarers seek and hide
And in the vital case of having lives to save
you can count on him for a while

Fall out,
don't be last in line,
when the rope breaks,
you'll be out of time

In his younger days he was smarter then
the other kids in his town
But he slipped into an anxious state
when no one else was around

Boatswain,
you know it's not too late,
you've had a dip but
it's not the end of it

Going deeper down into the water on his own
Never having ever had to hold his breath so long
Treading through the seaweed with a glimmer in his eye
But secretly he's terrified that he is gonna die

He is gonna die
He is gonna die
