"Waking shaking the cold dread
Of time distance constancy
Breaking thread
Still he dressed for the part
But wrote nakedly home
Begging to be excused shame
Proud heart just covered by a vest
Naked at the station
Asking to be let into any mother's bed
To have the tears wiped dry
And rest in sight of the house
But cradled in the rocking boat
Like Captain Cat the fat boy with the note."
Of time distance constancy
Breaking thread
Still he dressed for the part
But wrote nakedly home
Begging to be excused shame
Proud heart just covered by a vest
Naked at the station
Asking to be let into any mother's bed
To have the tears wiped dry
And rest in sight of the house
But cradled in the rocking boat
Like Captain Cat the fat boy with the note."
