Can't Weld a Body Lyrics

You crafted and caressed her with a careful hand
But the lady didn�t understand
And you riveted and plated her til morning
But with a coil or a careless spark
Or a tumble in the dark
She�ll leave her mark upon you without warning
You can float a boat of steel upon the ocean
You can fix it up with nuts and bolts and toil
But you can�t weld a body when it�s broken
The lady she�s as fair as Desdemona
She swallowed you up just like Jonah
And there the air inside her belly ailed you
And no-one saw you fall
And they did not hear your call
And your breath it faltered just before it failed you

On a cruiser that was fitted by your father
You anchored in San Carlos harbour
But the lady at the helm she was not for turning
And in your bell bottoms blue
