Once Upon An Ocean

Kevin Ayers

Once upon an ocean

We dream a ship to sail

When it start leaking

We had to learn to bail

All that mattered it was

Keeping the ship afloat

But we couldn't work together

We become a drunken boat

Captain shouted out

Nobody hear him speak. oh no

Everyone went rushing round going crazy

Trying to find that leak

Waves getting heavier

We don¡¯t stand much chance

Then we heard that old familiar music

And we just had to dance



Our ship is sinking but we don¡¯t give a damn

No, No, No, No

Our ship is sinking but we don¡¯t give a damn

No, No, No, No, No
