Sticky Paws

I always loved cruel women
and you loved cruel men
so it didn't seem like we were made for each other
in the days back then
still everything seemed right according to its laws
now I'm just another idiot
on a boat called sticky paws

I may be old, I may be cheap
but I still have steel-blue eyes
that feature has not always helped me
under doomy skies

bombs away
the happy ones
peace on earth
and the doors

and every time I pass St Vincent
I can hear the sisters call
the flag I sail under must be blank
until all empires fall
won't you visit me some time I think we should meet again
according to our laws on a boat called sticky paws

I may be old, I may be cheap
but I still have steel-blue eyes
that feature has not always helped me
under doomy skies

till misconception has proven wrong
my sweet and strange companion
like any other unread book
I offer you your vengeance

bombs away (peace on earth, and the doors)
bombs away
bombs away
the dear happy ones are near

bombs away / bombs away / the happy ones / peace on earth / and the doors
bombs away / the happy ones / peace on earth / and the doors

bombs away
(my dear) the happy ones (are near)
peace on earth (and on the moon)
and the doors (are closing soon)
