Distant Doubloon

[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]

Blind Pew he covers you with colours of the night you'll never meet him in the carnival

Taggada takes the Jakeys for a ride

And Long John Silver is one of the few that Robbie Stevenson Could champion even though the man was fake made up the kind you'd never expect to shoot one of their inmates

[Verse 2]

The horizontal stripes will lead you to the west

The vertical hill town huns will leave your own back with your tannadiction chest

The weakest character in this chapter loves dairy

Shadows never shone

I never met a pretty creature who would crumble at the outcome of a cow

How come you would tell me farmers never bow

Metaphors are easy just to talk about it, growing up with spacers I can live without

[Chorus]

Fifteen holes is never worth a stolen bike

Just waiting for a different cunt to say what to write about

There will never be a colour in the sea

If you don't have no eyes to see

So please don't dwell upon your wooden leg your limp is boring me

[Verse 2]

You see your wallpaper was red polluted with lesbian green

Red was never your colour it was never your team

Blue it never even crossed your mind

Because you never flew a flight

Golden treasure left you blind

[Chorus]

Fifteen holes is never worth a stolen bike

Just waiting for a different cunt to say what to write about

There will never be a colour in the sea

If you don't have no eyes to see

So please don't dwell upon your wooden leg your fucking limp is boring me

[Instrumental Outro]
