This Boy Can't Swim Lyrics

This boy can't swim,
He's wearing to many skins,
I hope he sinks,
Then he'll forget everything.

Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together,
Then realised those he lied to were cleverer,
Left on the side they have long since rejoined him,
Back in the fold thick as thieves they will weigh him down

This boy can't swim,
He's carrying too many sins,
I hope he sinks,
'till he forgets everything

Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together
Then realised those he lied to were cleverer
Left on the side they have long since rejoined him
Back in the fold thick as thieves they will weigh him down
[good as gold].. [thick as thieves]
