The Waterboys: "Strange Boat"

"Strange Boat"

We're sailing on a strange boat,
Heading for a strange shore.
We're sailing on a strange boat,
Heading for a strange shore
Carrying the strangest cargo
That was ever hauled aboard.

We're sailing on a strange sea,
Blown by a strange wind.
We're sailing on a strange sea,
Blown by a strange wind
Carrying the strangest crew
That ever sinned.

We're riding in a strange car;
We're followin' a strange star;
We're climbing on the strangest ladder
That was ever there to climb.

We're living in a strange time,
Working for a strange goal.
We're living in a strange time,
Working for a strange goal.
We're turning flesh and body
Into soul.
