Coast On By - King Creosote

I am lost and yet you all know where I am

Without the use of some magical map

And you’ve all seen me duck down in the cornfields

And you’ve all seen me pedal for the car

You’ve seen me wading through reviews I don’t deserve

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure

I’ll coast on by

At the risk of a mixed up shipping metaphor

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure

I am lost and yet you all know who I am

You’ve heard me raging like a bull in a pram

You’ve heard me laughing doubled up on the floor

Well did you know

I don’t like leaving my village no more

Although I go to do the thing I love the most

It’s a bit like waking after dreaming

To a day that promises to coast on by

And did you know how much I worry about that

Although this music thing is all that can be done

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure

I’ll coast on by

At the risk of a mixed up shipping metaphor

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure

Well, I am lost and yet you seem to know just where I am

Without the use of some mystical crap

So, who and where am I to be sad

Coast on by

Coast on by

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure

I’ll coast on by

At the risk of a mixed up shipping metaphor

I’ll coast on by

Without so much as a simple ship to cure
