Build, build a ship for two
In the waves she'll get tossed
In a wooden ship for two
Silver sea we were lost
Lost, lost, lost

Sturdy sails can't pull us through
They were shredded and torn
Struck the great whale with my harpoon
Drugged us way off our course

There are the strangest creatures
Wading just on the shores
Some walk on the longest legs
On the deep ocean floss

Build, build a ship for two
In the waves she'll get tossed
In a wooden ship for two
Silver sea we were lost
Lost, lost, lost

Where are the birds?
Where are the fish?
What land have I come to?
Where is my boat and where is my love?
What has fate brought us to?

Build, build a ship for two
In the waves she'll get tossed
In a wooden ship for two
Silver sea we were lost
Lost, lost, lost
