SHIP OF WOMEN I could see pink smoke in the mist of the morning It didn't cross my mind You were in need of medicine For your wounds You are a postman Thinking he's a rockstar You're a plumber Self-convinced he'll become a pornstar Cause we're underused Life is very short We need something more Then we'll take to the sea On the Ship Of Women Yeah there's plenty of them I'm the only man aboard Yes we'll take to the sea On the Ship Of Women Yeah there's plenty of them I'm the only man aboard Let me kiss your face in the cool of the evening I didn't realise You were mad at me While drifting into sleep On your own You are a postman Thinking he's a rockstar You're a plumber Self-convinced he'll become a pornstar Cause we're underused Life is very short We need something more Then we'll take to the sea On the Ship Of Women Yeah there's plenty of them I'm the only man aboard Yes we'll sail away to sea On the Ship Of Women Yeah there's plenty of them I'm the only man aboard I'm the only man on board On the Ship Of Women Ship Of Women Makes me a man Ship Of Women I'm going insane Ship Of Women Ship Of Women Ship Of Women Ship Of Women Please come aboard!

SOMEWHERE IN A NIGHTMARE You walked away She went away You made my day I lost my way She let me stay You washed away evidence Much to my surprise How does that not make sense? I could see the ducks, the Japanese fishes Swimming in the fountain I don’t know what’s in store for me Eating giant peaches In the middle of nowhere I wonder if we met before my dear Somewhere in a nightmare She returned my smile Then we shook hands by the river She liked my accent And I loved her voice You walked away She went away You made my day I lost my way She let me stay You washed away evidence Much to my surprise How does that not make sense? I dive into the dusk, the Spanish fishes Heading towards Norway I don’t know what’s in store for me Eating giant peaches In the middle of nowhere I wonder if we met before my dear Somewhere in a nightmare She returned my smile Then we shook hands by the river She liked my accent And I loved her voice (P) & (C) 2019 Olivier Rocabois — All rights reserved
