And throw the fishermen lines close the shipyards and mines Leaving only the water we still have old wives tales About the old days deep lonely waters the old days The old days deep lonely waters the old days We climb hills all the time the riddles in our minds And this I don't mind but the hills in our minds Can not be measured in miles and it's 'Catcher In The Rye' Feed the fishermen lies beat a bibliophile It's an even colder climate there was rhythm and rhyme The rhythm dies but the rhyme is alive Rhyme is alive rhyme is alive The rhyme is alive rhyme is alive rhyme's alive Play real life monopoly it has real people real lives That game for unarming the family of young and old Now getting caught cold the small and wry smurf that says As he'll vote he's saying it's we have sin are you in We'll have to fight for them again soon and it's the deluxe game With *morality clean* they own the water the whole company They own they own this country the whole fucking thing Throw the fishermen *lines* close the shipyards and mines Leaving only the water we'll still have old wives tales About the old days deep lonely waters the old days The old days deep lonely waters the old days The old days see they *can* for there they go the old days
