Lyrics
Private Archipelago
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She lives alone on her Private Archipelago
with the palm trees and her seashells
She sits in the waves all day
She's scared of dying and she wants to keep it that way
She sends a boat out on the sea with a little note for me
it says why are all the girls so hungry
say why are all the girls so hungry
why are all the boys so lonely
Why can't anybody see me
and why can't anybody hear me
and why won't anyone believe me
hey monkey, why you gotta leave me
monkey, why you gotta leave me
Why can't you leave a light on .... for me
