Marooned
Bruce Gilbert, Colin Newman, Graham Lewis
An unwilling sailor adrift
From Arctic waters, o oh
As the water gets warmer
My iceberg gets smaller, o oh
As he pours more petrol on, he feels no fear
As the flames get nearer
His thoughts get clearer, o oh
A blue-white polar bear arrives at the end
O oh diverting his attention, his
Feelings froze over, oh
I'm only a runaway AWOL at the logical start
Not present in the present
Overboard with limited future, future
And I'm standing alone
Still getting a thrill
While the ship is afloat
He's losing his boat, o oh
