Lyrics to The Boat I Row
Many ways to go
It's hard to self-assure
When everyone's a pro
Saying, "It's so obvious,"
But really they don't know
(They don't know)
Just like a monster that is (Man or machine)
Only a shadow (A shadow)
From which I'm already runnin'
Easy, I suppose
And even if it takes
A hundred thousand goes
The way's in front of me 'cause
That's the one I chose (I chose)
It's always starin' at you (Barely a choice)
That's the boat I row (I row)
And though it seems to be
Endless problems
Relentless
I know I'm oblivious
Bit overzealous
And possibly jealous
I row until I'm breathless
Try to suppress it
I couldn't bear it
So onward I go
Many ways to go
It's hard to self-assure
When everyone's a pro
Saying, "It's so obvious,"
But really they don't know
(They don't know)
Just like the monster that is (Man or machine)
Only a shadow (A shadow)
But you're already runnin'
Endless problems
Relentless
I know I'm oblivious
Bit overzealous
And possibly jealous
I row 'until I'm breathless
Try to suppress it
I couldn't bear it
So onward I go
It's hard to self-assure
When everyone's a pro
Saying, "It's so obvious,"
But really they don't know
(They don't know)
Just like a monster that is (Man or machine)
Only a shadow (A shadow)
From which I'm already runnin'
Easy, I suppose
And even if it takes
A hundred thousand goes
The way's in front of me 'cause
That's the one I chose (I chose)
It's always starin' at you (Barely a choice)
That's the boat I row (I row)
And though it seems to be
Endless problems
Relentless
I know I'm oblivious
Bit overzealous
And possibly jealous
I row until I'm breathless
Try to suppress it
I couldn't bear it
So onward I go
Many ways to go
It's hard to self-assure
When everyone's a pro
Saying, "It's so obvious,"
But really they don't know
(They don't know)
Just like the monster that is (Man or machine)
Only a shadow (A shadow)
But you're already runnin'
Endless problems
Relentless
I know I'm oblivious
Bit overzealous
And possibly jealous
I row 'until I'm breathless
Try to suppress it
I couldn't bear it
So onward I go
