Lyrics

The mast of this boat goes right through the middle of this table
The crew they gather around over the keel to help to keep the boat stable
Manning the rudder and minding the sails the captain show they're capable
tales are measured by the age of the Sea and our desire is insatiable

Capsize your boat
Flip it back over
Climb back on-board
The wind is your motor
And the sailor find themselves once again under way

All in due time
We’ll follow winds and tides
Short stories and long laughs we will keep in high supply
We could make the only news we need be
The weather report for making memories
And a port to restock or just set our feet on a dock

Capsize your boat
Flip it back over
Climb back on-board
The wind is your motor
Always at the mercy of the sea and her wonderful whims
Grab the helm again
Don't mind the sails waving Trim them up a bit and just
Keep the bow straight and
The sailor finds themselves once again under way

Common tropes
Of storms on the sea won't help you sail when it's twenty feet
The only pearl you'll find
Is off the port or starboard side
Ending up in irons can be a frustrating thing don't blame the crew, the boat, or the lee
Just tighten up the sheet and get around to a close reach


Cruising along on a really nice clip and you look around and the crew is stoked
It seems you planted ice and harvested the wind
And now you're holding on to this rope
Feel as the boat heels in wind just lean it back all in the groove
But you know if that boom hits the water
The crew is gonna have to move
