Where B7reptile aliens made of light
Cut you open, pull out all your Epain Esus4 E Esus4
Tell me Ehow you make illegal

Saying, "Bbmy life's no longer Fmine"
Have you running with some BbSAD SFOG
CBMF sandFeaters
FSetting out on them high seas feels Bbjust like being Fborn
TFhat first port call in Thailand feels like a pollywog turning nCineteen
They've got Fking cobras fighting in boxing rings and all the Bbangels play Connect FFour
BbSeems like a sailor's Fparadise but Cturns out to be a bad Fdream
FNow you hit the ground running in Tokyo from BbKawasaki to EbFisu
Yokosuka, Yokohama, and Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ropongi, and CHarajuku
Aw, from FPusan and Ko Chang, Pattaya to Phuket
From BbSingapore to Kuala FLumpur
BbSeen damn near the Fwhole damn world from the Cinside of a Fbar
I've got Bbsea stories, they're all Ftrue
Might seem a little bit far-fetched but why would I Clie to you
Memories Bbmake forever stains, still got Fsalt running through my veins
I've got sea storiesC and my shellback, Ftoo
FSometimes Sirens send a ship off course, Bbhorizon gets so Fhazy
MFaybe get high, play a little GoldenEye on that old C64
And if Fyou get sick and can't manage the kick
And get Bbyourself kicked out the navy
You'll spend the Fnext year trying to score
From a futon Bblife raft on the floor
And the Fnext fifteen trying to figure out
What the Chell you did that Ffor
But flying high beats dying for lies in a Cpolitician's Fwar
