Pleasure Cruise
the scary jokes
Letra

Down by the bay a man made of clay
Dips his toes into the ocean, trying to wash himself away
He jumps into the pond and he starts to dissolve
And he dreams about the streams that bleed into the amazon

If you are a boulder that never leaves the shore
You'll get ground up into sand and tracked onto the floor
Swept into a pile on someone's kitchen tile

These hurricanes have led my heart astray
But maybe if I try my hardest
I'll finally chase the rainclouds all away

I heard on the news that they keep finding shoes
On the shores of Ecuador and no one knows what they should do
They tried to give them away but there's more every day
Ballet shoes in shades of blue and rubber boots and mary janes

If you have to get away, don't take a pleasure cruise
'Cause you might get swept away (and you'll lose your shoes)
They'll end up in a pile on some foreign isle

These hurricanes have led my heart astray
But maybe if I try my hardest I'll finally chase the rainclouds all away

In a couple years, the land will disappear under the ocean
When that day is here I'll pack a bathing suit and tanning lotion
I'll let the waves take me away
Away
