(HeatonRotheray)

If I walk like a fool, I've walked like that since school

But maybe it's the lure of the sea

Who knows the effect,

that whisky could've had on me

It could've been the lure of the sea



'Cause leather ain't as strong as the weather

But leather can strangle any dream

And leather ain't as strong as the weather

But leather took Curtis from me



Maybe it's the lure of the sea,

maybe it's the lure of the sea

Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty

But maybe it's the lure of the sea



Once I felt chained, and now, now I feel free

Maybe it's the lure of the sea

Polo and Da Gama,

well those two had nothing on me

Could be I'm a sucker for the sea



'Cause silver, ain't as quick as the tongue

But silver, took the M.L.K so young

And metal ain't as strong as the petal

But metal left the verse unsung



Maybe it's the lure of the sea,

maybe it's the lure of the sea

Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty

But maybe it's the lure of the sea



Freedom's taken a liking to me

Maybe it's the lure of the sea

Look in my eyes 'cause my belt's broke free

Maybe it's the lure of the sea

The Pirates Of Penzance,

they have nothing on me

Maybe it's the lure of the sea



Maybe it's the lure of the sea, maybe it's the lure of the sea

Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty

But maybe it's the lure of the sea



Maybe it's the lure of the sea, maybe it's the lure of the sea

Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty

But maybe it's the lure of the sea
