Lyrics Off The Boat - Y'akoto

We walked and we crossed some borders
We tried to cope
But some of us came back
He keeps his lovers ring behind his heart
Slippers sticking to his feet
Rubber cannot resist the heat
Very soon he'll take them off
Bribe some officials
Don't give the ring away
Waiting in the heat

The boat comes along and takes us with
He thought off her, so he can't feel his deadly
Need for some food
Between his teeth some liquid for his dried out soul

This was just like the had all said
Physical battle, body and soul
We knew he would never reach heaven
We threw him off the boat around
Quarter past eleven

He closed his eyes
This was just too wild
No energy left
I hope I will not survive
We sang some songs
But we didn't mourn
We will never return to where we were born

He could finally rest
From his deadly quest
