"Deck Chair" lyrics - THE DARKNESS

THE DARKNESS
"Deck Chair"

We had not long set sail
When a gust of a gale
Whisked my poor deckchair away
Into the brine
This blusterous swine
Stole something precious from me, that day
What will I sit on
Now that my chair is gone?
Where will I rest my behind?
Who will cradle me
Through the stormy seas
Of life and of time?

[Chorus:]
La vie
Le temps
La mort
(Oh, my old deck chair)
Qui te bercera?
(Well, my deck chair)
J'appartiens a Poseidon
(Ooh, my deck chair)
Le vent est ton temperament
Mon amour

[Guitar solo]

I stand here alone
For I have, not, a throne
Surveying the swell for a sign
The seat I relied on
Belongs to Poseidon
She is Neptune's, not mine
