Paroles de Boatman

The boatman sits on his boat by the river Try as he might, he cannot forgive her As he watches the corpse turning blue He laughs The boatman he sits on his boat by the river Another grey corpse he pulls out before dinner Another sad life, another sad time And he laughs The boatman he sits on his boat by the river No name and address when he does deliver The old ones, the worst ones, they tried and they failed He laughs And the odor and stench, they once made him retch Well now he just sees them as mortal flesh And he laughs Yes he laughs Yes he laughs Yes he laughs Yes he laughs Yes he laughs
