The Tiger Lillies - Drifting lyrics

Drifting in a calm sea water running over me Ten weeks I'm becalmed the serpent evil charm I'm waiting for the wind to blow for King Neptune mercy to show Drifting in this calm on the serpent evil charm I'm waiting I wonder why the seagulls above me cry So in solitude solitude we will drift Till Neptune does this curse lift My mouth is dry my mouth is parched Will this day be my last King Neptune save our souls or are we food for fishes shoals We're drifting please give us a sign I'm praying to the divine In water soon we will sink water without a drop to drink The sun just keeps beating down soon I know I shall drown Oh Neptune please hear my plea save our souls master please On the day that I do die the wind blows strong the seagulls cry
