Thrashing Doves - Matchstick Flotilla lyrics

I'm watching the waves Just winding down I've got my hip and my head united I'm getting down Just watching the waves Admiring the working man at work Oh, and watching the boats land, hey Oh, oh, oh, oh The matchstick flotilla By, by the boat load They couldn't get no thinner No food for days They're falling down Cascading like coffee Quarantined immigration ground No admissions today Set sail in a boat full of holes All the shipyards long been closed They've long been closed Oh, oh, oh, oh The matchstick flotilla By, by the boat load They couldn't get no thinner Whoa! I'm watching the waves Wash away the wreck As a man from immigration enthuses About the cost efficiency Of these burials at sea Oh, yeah! Here we go again More lambs for the lion Another flotilla More wood for the nationalist fire No admissions today Reminds me what Einstein said 'Bout the measles of mankind Old England's ill Oh, oh, oh, oh The matchstick flotilla By, by the boat load They couldn't get no thinner Whoa, I'm watching the waves They're winding down Oh, you better believe it I saw Jesus in an Eldorado! By, by, by, by
