Three Boats Down From The Candy Lyrics - Fish

Three boats down from the Candy 

Vacant deck chairs on a floodlit beach 

Three boats down from the Candy 

Rollers coast, invade the deepest sleep 

Three boats down from the Candy 

Carnal dancer let their senses preach 

It's a social disease 

It's the new moral cancer 

Don't think crying wolf 

Will give you the answer 

You ask for my love on the strength of a kiss 

But can't you just play for experience? 

I'm a poet, I'm a poet, I'm a minstrel 

I'm a minstrel, I don't need your chains 

Romance lies in ruin, let debauchery reign 

Wipe the tears from your eyes 

Wipe the sweat from your thighs 

Don't crawl to me with sentiment 

My laughter drowns your cries 

You're a memory trapped on Polaroid 

A puppet drawn on celluloid 

So drink the wine, confess your sin 

Just flotsam in a silent void 

Three boats down from the Candy 

I'll remember you 

Three boats down from the Candy 

Much, too much to lose 

Three boats down from the Candy 

Those words were never true 

Three boats down from the Candy 

I'll remember you, I'll remember you 

I'll remember you
