It’s four in the morning, and I can’t sleep. I’m tossing and turning in the ocean so deep. And before I know it, the sun begins to rise Over the horizon, blinding my eyes. Time to wake up and start the day, And finish my work so I can play. I’ll drink my *** and I’ll do my dance On the deck of this ship on this vast expanse. But a storm’s-a-brewin’, and now it’s getting late, So I’ll save all my work for a later date And I’ll die in this storm with a smile on my face, Dancing my way out of this nautical rat race.

A Sea Shanty About Sleep
It’s four in the morning, and I can’t sleep. I’m tossing and turning in the ocean so deep. And before I know it, the sun begins to rise Over the horizon, blinding my eyes. Time to wake up and start the day, And finish my work so I can play. I’ll drink my *** and I’ll do my dance On the deck of this ship on this vast expanse. But a storm’s-a-brewin’, and now it’s getting late, So I’ll save all my work for a later date And I’ll die in this storm with a smile on my face, Dancing my way out of this nautical rat race.
