Modest Mouse Lyrics
"Sugar Boats"

This rock of ours is just some big mistake
And we will never know just where we'll go
Or where we have come from
These veins of mine are just some sort of fuse
Because when they go up in my mind
Close up my mind is amused
So this heart of mine is like some sort of map
That doesn't ever tell what it's about
Or where the hell you're at
Here we go!

Well, I ain't getting on no fast train, yeah
I ain't getting on no stuffed train

Well, I've been meaning to dismiss you, yeah
I have meant to dismiss you
Passed my time, where you are
My, well, my sugar bones!
I've noticed you paint every last damn sentence
You paint us to the stars in the skies, the skies
Wave goodbye, sugar bones!
So I'm swatting at mosquitoes as they're orbiting me
I've grown used to so much
It goes on and on and on, swinging
This heart of mine is just some bugged machine
And we can't turn it off
It's going well, far from the scene

This rock of ours is just some big mistake
And we will never know just where we are
Or where we have come from
These veins of mine are just some sort of book
Because when I look in, I shouldn't look in
Now I can't close my top without you, so

Well, I ain't getting on no fast plane, yeah
I ain't getting on no stuffy train
These sugar boats swim around and around
They swim just fine
I'm standing on the decks so you can't
I'm standing on the decks so you can
Wave bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
