Anchor
You have tossed the boat around and around
And I watched it spin all over the town
Drifting slowly away from the harbor
Out in the deep where no one could compete
It went too far and lost its thrust
and it suddenly sinks and his father had to pay
double for his moral sins,
they searched everywhere
But the boat was not there,
and those looking on wept bitterly
for the drowning man.
