Life On A Houseboat Lyrics


I Can See Mountains Life On A Houseboat

The floor creaks and I'm still whistling
The sun's up, I want that warm gun
That's life out in the ocean
I want the taste of salt on my tongue
You're pacing towards remission
I'm drinking dirty water
There's hope inside your blue eyes
Your father's only daughter

I'm going outside
I swear I saw a million stars right above my bedroom window
Outside, we were laughing in the moonlight, voiding the contracts that we didn't sign

Entertaining the politicians wife
I never thought I would ever lead this life
Life on a houseboat gets real sad, at least I get to dance with dad

We come to sad realizations everyday
Where it might seem best to drift away
Take a note from Dan and jump the boat
Flip on your back and float float float
But the main points of your theory are just slightly condescending
I've invested too much effort
I'm entirely entitled to be lost

I've been having such, such evil thoughts
Where I go out back cut my feet off
I will need them life's adventures gone
Now I sit at a desk and burn my tongue
The cashews on the floorboards are spelling out sings of life's potential
Where did you go wrong?
No where'd I go wrong?
