Rowing, ringing, a flinging As we ride this boat of All and dignified Down the river, across the divide
Words at the highest of tides With my bride, she's my touring guide And yes, we both do On this where we hide
a lot of work But here we are ringing bells And floating on this My pal grins, the wind and sighs
We realize with our minds aside Only to see the mystery of books floating free And those books are free one caught in the weed, let's get it
Go get that lovely Let's grab those lovely Gather up all these We're looks, looks We're the looks
These bloody books Arms of lovely books collecting books We're getting looks
While we are stacking, organizing, Piling way up high and Dewey dusty, Sorting, tracking,
Can't believe we this vintage We now have such advantage Great they'll look in our Let's get goin, let us now, now, now, now
Hey, hey, hey, what do say Collections sit and beg to Wanting to give, and speak us But packed and nicely put away
What to do for heard they are good But also been told they can't be understood By simpletons me, and should never be So why try
Crack in to all those The lovely bloody We open up books We takin looks, We're a look
to hit the books The bloody books Arms full of books Open up all these
got the words of one who made the river Blood that's flowing through the I got books, I don't read them scraps up from the table
Flippin through with pointing At the and the numbers Straining eyes and feeling how to be members, how now, how now
And I'm turning the page while on It is starting to sink and I'm to the With my plans in pencil, the vision's in ink to think
My left tells me I'm a fool My right tells me it's true, true I am knowing one thing I hearing good news, it's true, it's true, it's true
And it's false gonna cost for these books Taking one second Gonna call my counselor now gonna clear Clear then explain everything
These steer our ship with good news For now I got to lose My brother a thousand I quote you one line
But, oh now I shall all of your ways With warm cockles in to my And dancing to hits and skipping Around on ships
