Shipmate

In a 40 tonne steal vessel You'd think your safe But the waves are hassle Higher than the empire state Tossing us around, Like a childs play thing Up high then suddenly down Left to right like a swing Hanging on to a table With my head full of lumps Not feeling very stable Getting battered by loose junk I want to go home now It's been long enough I'm cold, scared and half drowned Seawater covering all of us Never change your ships name Was a scream I heard The captains to blame The oceans proving the curse I'm too young to die And not in this way I cannot tell a lie Save me i pray
