As Blue As Can Be

The ocean is blue, as blue as can be
I could sure do with that view right now
Coz I’m down here on bended knees
with a monkey, a toad and a cawing crow

I looked out there and I looked in here
and I tossed all night looking in my bed
I picked my way through famine, flood
and fire
Finally found my voice but lost my head

As blue, as blue as
as blue, as blue as can be

Did you read the note, did I tell you that
when you walked out the house fell down
Now isn’t that the straw that broke the last
camel’s back
Couldn’t see it for dust as it left town

Oh the ocean is blue, as blue as can be
Couldn’t I curl up and lie in that blue
right now
I can hear the waves like they’re coming
through a shell
or coming over the dunes where we
lay down

As blue, as blue as
as blue, as blue as can be

The ocean is blue, as blue as can be
I could sure do with that view right now
because I’m down here on bended knees
with a monkey, a toad and a cawing crow
