Madness - Night Boat To Cairo lyrics

Your rating:

Night boat to Cairo!

It's just gone noon half past monsoon
On the banks of the river Nile
Here comes the boat only half afloat
Oarsman grins the toothless smile.

Only just one more to this desolate shore
Last boat along the river Nile
Doesn't seem to care no more wind in his hair
As he reaches his last half mile.

The oar snaps in his hand before he reaches dry land
But the sound doesn't dampen his smile
Just pokes the wet sand with an oar in his hand
Floats off down the river Nile (2x).

Night boat
Night boat to Cairo (2x)!
