lyrics

Nick Frater - Desert Ships (lyrics)

Palm Springs, 75
Putting all you money down on staying alive through it all
Heart strings, caught in a dive,
Blowing all your chances now on saving your pride to notice
All this has gone forever
Taking the time again
Making up time again

Cap Rock, 73
Heading through the dessert just the doctor and me oh maybe
Cold cuts, bring it back
Batten down the hatches for a panzer attack
Oh baby
All this has now gone forever
Making up time again
‘till any-when

Desert ships have gone forever
Salton Seas have left us for a while
All this leaves us stranded here for a little while
Desert ships left stranded here for another year

Fat chance, 71
Take to the limit with an eye on the fun you gotta
Hot sauce, bring in the news
Burning all the edges now you’re scuffing your shoes or maybe
All the water, turned to winter
Shaking the night again
Into the night again

Short shrift, 74
Waking up the neighbours with a round of applause aboard

Desert ships have gone forever
Salton seas have left us for a while
All this leaves us stranded here for a little while
Desert ships left stranded here for another year
