VERSE 2
captain margot showed up married
on the 4th day of september
honey on the back side of some wheat toast
she spread, and bit
she smiled, and spread
and life was good for everybody
life was good for everyone
and captain margot says a sailor
feels the salt course in his veins
and has no need for explanation
he sails, he floats
he smiles and sails
and life is good for everybody
life is good for everyone
BRIDGE
but there's a thin line of difference
between aesthetics and emotion
one might please the view,
one torments by touchless wonder
FINALE
Am D
And life is good for everybody, life is good for everyone <3x>
G
BUT, CAPTAIN...
