Lyrics
Let's be like children and play
Pretend we started again
Left out our notions and names
Scoop up our hearts from the floor
These obligations we got
Are here forever so now
Let's raise the sails to please ourselves
And no one else
Although we know that
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
Between what feels good and sells
Hung up my mind on a fence
If you believe it's getting better
You mustn't have any sense
So now let's burn some borrowed time
Of yours and mine
Although we know that
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Oh yeah
So Arthur Jobs on his knees
Another man overboard
They shot ahead in a flash
Two years of dead on the shore
So now let's learn to paint the town
While we go down
Although we know that
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
You won't ever be saved
If you're not king of the waves
King of the waves
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Do you remember why we're doing it?
Oh yeah
Do you remember why we're doing it?
