Coast On By Lyrics by King Creosote

Flick the Vs

2009

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
Chorus
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
Chorus
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
Chorus
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
