Susie At The Shore Lyrics - Crimes - These United States

We must begin at the beginning, with the pirates at port 

An ancient secret leaks from deep ocean floors 

Lap the water, whispering tease and clattering oars 

All aboard who is going aboard 

We got our selves an atlantis-tican tour 

We steer our ships out to the seashore, where Susie sells her shells 

We saw the same shameful sights we see inside ourselves 

There are is a whole list of lies that even time won't tell, time will not tell 

Tide heeds its hieroglyphic dead sea scrolls 

Stone document intent on tallying the toll 

Sins of omisson, sins of pride 

I can't believe these things we spy with our eyes out 

We got ourselves on hell-o-isco ride out (ride out) 

We pour our Napaz out to the bay mouth where Susie shakes her bells 

We see the same shameful sights that we sense inside our selves 

There are a boat load of pirates, think their ship doesn't smell 

(Where) Way long way 

(When) So far ago 

(Who) I can't say exactly 

(Why) I just dont know 

(How) Same crime as always 

(What) ...but i just told 

I tell you what, I tell you what I just told 

We steered our ships out to the seashore where Susie sells her shells 

We saw the same shameful sight that we see inside ourselves 

She swears a sink hole to a city through the blue surface fell 

If there's a man left on unguilty I am wishing his well
