The water floating ships sail out in the port of Rotterdam
The water’s oily, the sun it shines, the tide is coming in
See how we’re sailing, sprits high we’re out to the promised land
The waves are green and the water sparkles, I can hear the sirens sing
The water floating ships sail out in the port of Rotterdam
The water’s oily, the sun it shines, the tide is coming in
Oh can’t you see
What you’re doing to me?
But nothing’s wrong
Cause I am strong
Oh can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
Tied to the mast is our captain, he can hear them, see he smiles
Our ears are closed and we dream of mermaids but the ship is holding fast
At the horizon, the buildings, the flags, the castle in the east
But the storm is at the port bow, lightning strikes and the island disappears
Oh can’t you see
What you’re doing to me?
But nothing’s wrong
Cause I am strong
Oh can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
