By Air Or By Sea

Family is a battle of wills An Armageddon before brunch You took your chances now you pays your bills Without a clue, without a hunch In a litter of travel brochures Somewhere there's a shining oasis I'll tell ya how to get there from here To the Land of Hospitable Faces You can go by air or by sea By carriage ride or by plane Hoist the anchor of misery For an island where it never rains An island where it never rains Work is the curse of the classes The factory life never closes Collecting all those bail-out passes To labor under dreams of roses Well, they'd work you 'til an early grave They'd do that if you let 'em Don't you be nobody's slave Ditch your masters and forget 'em If you go by air or by sea By carriage ride or by plane Hoist the anchor of misery For an island where it never rains An island where it never rains
