Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, slowly down
Slowly downriver
When they sold you down
Where all your timbers shiver
[Verse 2]
Hold you down
And as you're flailing
Yes, as you drown
They say, oh, look, he's waving
[Verse 3]
How can ya
Teach her she was safe?
Ooh, the Britannia
Raped by all the slaves
Raped by all the slaves
[Verse 4]
Oh, sorry, dad
And sorry for
The good times that I had
Oh, well, they make me look so bad
[Verse 5]
And sorry, mom
I'm sorry for
The good things that I've done
I gave you hope when there was none, none
[Verse 6]
No, how can ya
Teach her she was safe?
Das, da svidaniya
Tell me I can live back out on the sieve
My baby's coming with me now
[Verse 7]
Down for the outing
To the prison of my mind
No three-score ten wreck
Won't be blind
Won't be blinded like, no lion by a donkey, no
[Verse 8]
Oh, how can ya
Teach her she was safe?
Das, da svidaniya
When you tell me I can live
Back upĀ on the sieve
And my baby's coming with me now
[Verse 9]
Down for the outing
To the prison of my mind
No pretty ribbons
The wild beast will bind
No pretty rhythms to ease a troubled mind
There's many troubled minds
Many troubled minds 'round here
And Leicester
