1
We sail tonight for Singapore,
2
we're all as mad as hatters here
3
I've fallen for a tawny Moor,
4
took off to the land of Nod
5
Drank with all the Chinamen,
6
walked the sewers of Paris
7
I danced along a colored wind,
8
dangled from a rope of sand
9
You must say goodbye to me
10
We sail tonight for Singapore,
11
don't fall asleep while you're ashore
12
Cross your heart and hope to die
13
when you hear the children cry
14
Let marrow bone and cleaver choose
15
while making feet for children shoes
16
Through the alley, back from hell,
17
when you hear that steeple bell
18
You must say goodbye to me
19
Wipe him down with gasoline
20
'til his arms are hard and mean
21
From now on boys this iron boat's your home
22
So heave away, boys
23
We sail tonight for Singapore,
24
take your blankets from the floor
25
Wash your mouth out by the door,
26
the whole town's made of iron ore
27
Every witness turns to steam,
28
they all become Italian dreams
29
Fill your pockets up with earth,
30
get yourself a dollar's worth
31
Away boys, away boys, heave away
32
The captain is a one-armed dwarf,
33
he's throwing dice along the wharf
34
In the land of the blind
35
the one-eyed man is king, so take this ring
36
We sail tonight for Singapore,
37
we're all as mad as hatters here
38
I've fallen for a tawny Moor,
39
took off to the land of Nod
40
Drank with all the Chinamen,
41
walked the sewers of Paris
42
I drank along a colored wind,
43
I dangled from a rope of sand
44
You must say goodbye to me
