Lyrics Night Boat To Cairo - Madness
Night
Boat
To
Cairo
It's
just
gone
noon
Half
past
monsoon
On
the
banks
of
the
River
Nile
Here
comes
the
boat
Only
half-afloat
Oarsman
grins
a
toothless
smile
Only
just
one
more
To
this
desolate
shore
Last
boat
along
the
River
Nile
Doesn't
seem
to
care
No
more
wind
in
his
hair
As
he
reaches
his
last
half
mile
The
oar
snaps
in
his
hand
Before
he
reaches
dry
land
But
the
sound
doesn't
deafen
his
smile
Just
pokes
at
wet
sand
With
an
oar
in
his
hand
Floats
off
down
the
River
Nile
Floats
off
down
the
River
Nile
(Night
Boat
to
Cairo)
(Night
Boat
to
Cairo)
(Night
Boat
to
Cairo)
