Molly Songtext
von Man the Lifeboats

Molly my little shipwreck
I was sinking and just like a rat
You abandoned me with a wave to a watery grave
And that was the end of that

Molly my old broken compass
Now I′m lost and I don't know the stars
No more to navigate that old ocean of fate
I′ll be in all of the usual bars

And through London's fair city I wander alone
The girls are so pretty but nobody's home
Cause I′m only looking for Mrs Malone
Oh Molly where did you go?
Cause nobody round here seems to know

Molly my foregone conclusion
Maybe we were never written to win
I remember you say way back in the day
That you′d never let anyone in


Molly my greatest adventure
We never made it to old Mexico
In fact we only got as far as that old Cuban bar
That's just off the Waterloo Road

And through London′s fair city I wander alone
The girls are so pretty but nobody's home
Cause I′m only looking for Mrs Malone
Oh Molly where did you go?
Cause nobody round here seems to know

Molly
Where did you go?
I've asked the whole congregation and none of them know
Molly
Where do I start?
I still love you with every string of my heart

Oh Molly my little empire
Now I shall return to the sea
But I won′t be sailing like Sir Michael of Palin
Cause no one can save me from me


And through London's fair city I wander alone
The girls are so pretty but nobody's home
Cause I′m only looking for Mrs Malone
Oh Molly where did you go?
Cause nobody round here seems to know
I said nobody round here seems to know
Nobody round here seems to know
