Going Overboard - The Fixx

So it’s flotsam and jetsam

You leave the ship

Sinking slowly

When you do the plank

But it’s a bridge talk for deathtrap

So aquanautic

But I’m anchored, electric

Release the jib

I’m going overboard

Over the side

I’m going overboard

Over the side

When the Bombay sets sail

On a coconut float

Drifting so aimlessly

When the engine chokes

Devoted, alerted

You thank my pipeline

When the coast guard has a safeguard

Reveals the twist

There’s one thing for sure

True love in the tide

I’m going overboard

Slipping

You got a party on a poop deck

Live under the flag

I got a cocktail and I’m full sail

Completes the trip

You take your life into your own hands

You do your party piece

I took my life into my own hands

I left that ship

There’s one thing for sure

Over the side

I fell in love with an oar

True love in the tide
