I am the scavenger


Paul Banks portrait by Caitlin Shearer






I'm timeless like a broken watch,
I make money like Fred Astaire.

I see that you've come to resist me, I'm a pitbull in time.
The pretence is not what restricts me,
It's the circles inside.
The anatomy of kisses and a teacher who tries,
Who knows how we'll disappear.
Would you like to be my missus,
And in future with child?
You know that we can't get back from here.
We can get away.

Baby don't you try to find me.
Baby don't you try to fight.
Baby don't you try to find me.
Baby, it will be all right.

Along the way...
Tears drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship in your life.
We sail today
Tears drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship
Or receive a better tip in your life.

I am the scavenger...
Between the sheets of union.
Lately I can't tell for sure,
whether machines turn anyone.
I am the scavenger...
Between the sheets of union.
Lately I can't tell for sure,
If the machines turn anyone.

Lady don't you try to find me.
Lady there is no need to fight.
Lady don't you try to find me.
Baby it will be all right.

We sail today...
Tears will drown in the wake of delight.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship in your life.
Along the way...
The sea will crowd us with lovers at night.
There's nothing like this built today.
You'll never see a finer ship,
Or receive a better tip in your life.

I see that you've come to resist me...
I'm a pitbull in time.

White Goddess, Red Goddess,
Black temptress of the sea, you treat me right.

Black Goddess, Red Goddess,
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right.

Oh my love we are sailing to Norway
Oh my love we're leaving tonight

Take me on a cruise
