Sea Legs Lyrics

How are your sea legs these days?

The tablets don't work they just sit in my stomach

Recalling the fish day when you scaled away

Down the cliff I thought that was the end

I'll train my sea legs one of these days

I'll test the water I'll get the ferry over

Your photo on the pub wall I've seen them all

and Billy pointed out 'half of them are dead now'

The trips still happen in your absence

They're going somewhere sunny this year

Jesus Christ you would have been burned alive

Hold onto your hat and fill your cooler bag with ice

I've been on a few flights since

But I'm going somewhere sunny this year a place we've been

I'll look for you at the piers and at the stalls at the market

I'll mistake you for a man in a hat that would've saved you getting scalded

I've been training my sea legs since

And treading the tide since

And finding my feet

And clutching at straws

How were you always so fucking composed?

And how have your sea legs been since?
