Coastguard are you familiar

High tides are not peculiar

And on the table is a yellow coat

And on the table is a yellow coat

Mummy tries

Bye bye

Mummy tries

Bye bye

Think back what were you doing then

Back turned and turned back again

And on the table is your sorry face

On the table is your sorry face

Mummy tries

Bye bye

Mummy tries

Bye bye

Deep black and deep

She takes the most

Black deep and black

She takes the most

Deep black and deep

She takes the most

Black deep and black

She takes the most

Sit down it's what you always do

Talk loud who are you talking to

And at the table is an empty place

at the table is an empty place

Mummy tries

Bye bye

Mummy tries

Mummy tries

These are the pearls that were her eyes

She's flotsam carried on the tides

Is she lost or did she hide?

On shifting rocks

On shifting rocks

She couldn't swim she couldn't see

The current pushing out the sea

Down estuaries and tributaries

On benthic rocks

She's wrecked on Benthic rocks

She's been swept away (x4)
