Dogs of the Sea

[00:30.56] One more man and we'll be sailing smooth
[00:33.18] Got my sea legs on but my feet won't move
[00:37.00] Left my courage on the shore
[00:43.18] Pearl diving, met another dog of the sea
[00:46.38] The kind with doll eyes and two rows of teeth
[00:50.10] Smiled back as if I knew
[00:52.92]
[00:56.00] I heel when I'm asked to and I don't bite back
[00:59.76] Dogs of the sea don't swim like that
[01:03.22] They swear that siren sings for me alone
[01:08.35] You can see the shore when your light snuffs out
[01:15.04] You can see the shore when your light snuffs out
[01:19.36]
[01:23.44] One more night and we can anchor the sand
[01:26.17] Seasick for life, oysters in our hands
[01:29.73] Enough to crack until we die
[01:35.97] Saltwater pours from the dog of the sea
[01:39.41] Even land looks like high water to me
[01:43.08] Found a pearl between my ribs
[01:46.22]
[01:48.93] I heel when I'm asked to and I don't bite back
[01:52.64] Dogs of the sea don't swim like that
[01:56.24] They swear that siren sings for me alone
[02:01.64] You can see the shore when your light snuffs out
[02:08.12] You can see the shore when your light snuffs out
[02:12.39]
[02:28.69] Deepest coldest reaches
[02:31.73] A compass gives no direction
[02:34.83] We all know what's left for us
[02:40.87] I could have prayed for a siren's tear
[02:48.15] But sirens swallow sailors here
[02:52.41]
[03:09.56] Chum me up for the dogs of the sea
[03:12.95] When the oysters yield no pearls
[03:16.17] Chum me up for the dogs of the sea
[03:19.63] When the oysters yield no pearls
[03:21.63] I heel when I'm asked to and I don't bite back (Chum me up for the dogs of the sea)
[03:25.42] Dogs of the sea don't swim like that (When the oysters yield no pearls)
[03:28.78] They swear that siren sings for me alone (Chum me up for the dogs of the sea)
[03:33.50] When the oysters yield no pearls
[03:35.21]
