Yacht Dance - XTC

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails

Upon the tops of the seas

That would pull us down to depths and crush us flat

If given half a chance

No need to look back

To pictures of lost

When all was rust

We, we will skim across the surface of the mud

As if we’re spinning pebbles

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance, doo da dut doo da da dut

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails

Upon the tops of the seas

Made of people stained with scorn

Who never see the light of real love

No need to look back

Through diaries of lost

Now turned to dust

We, we will skate across the surface of the storm

As if we’re wheeling sea-birds

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance, doo da dut doo da da dut

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance

And how they’ll be jealous of both of us

In our yacht dance

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails

Upon the, 'pon the tops of the sea

Made of people stained with scorn

Who never see the light of real love

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance, roo da dut doo da da dut

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

In our yacht dance
