lyrics

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!
