Going To Paris Lyrics - Waterboys

We are going to Paris 

in a ship with red sails 

As the storm gathers slowly 

we eat fishheads and snails 

The mate jumps up, throws down a line 

to a man overboard for the ninetieth time 

And then he says with a wink 

"Sometimes I think 

I've been doing this forever!"

We are going to Paris 

in a ship called the? 

There are signs in the sky at night 

that the Captain says he's seen 

I keep books under my pillow 

and read them before I sleep 

Strange places I go to, 

strange companies I keep 

We are going to Paris 

we are one and thirty strong 

I can feel it in the air 

we'll be there before long 

The wind has come 

like a man insane, insane 

We are going to Paris 

it rains and it rains
