if you build me a boat dont expect me to make the lake

we both rush through the door

swim with the landlocked poor

so close to shore

Taller than the giraffes on the african plains

were shorter than we ever thought

youll see me for a beggar when I get out of this endless envy

All I ever want to be is a fruit orchard

growing while being robbed for its hard work

a couple set backs to assist the planet

 you hand me the oar

we both rush through the door

swim with the landlocked poor

so close to shore

Got all greedy with the motor

turned the boat into a fighter jet

I want to be grounded and submerged

see me in rest

if you build me a boat dont expect me to make the lake

cos it just wont take

I took some ocean away

I took some ocean away

I floated away

I floated ways away
