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, let it rain



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 to 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
