Sleek, swift, streamlined ship,
shield-clad and shining,
tell to me the tale of your trip
when the limpest of men were your lining
O I know you were a ship of fools
O I know
Irresistable U Are lyrics

Here we are again 
The jangle of my ankle chain is the only sound I can hear 
When I'm here w

Land-lubbers of the lowest grade
their hearts and their heads were both hollow
O I know you were a ship of fool
The Shape Of The Enemy lyrics

O I know you were a ship of fools
But your form is far-out, framed by foam:

of mysteries in the making
O I know you were a ship of fools
O I know you were a ship of fools
A ship of fools
ship of fools
you were a ship of fools.
