lyrics

It's sophistication what they need
It's intimidation what they see
I pack my bags and I move away
Go to a land where they know my name

Well

I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head

Try not to teach me your words and greed
A fleet like yours is all that we need
A land far from your sobriety
Where sawdust can't beat spawned spirits

Here, well

I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head

Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship
Teach me to build a ship

Sophistication is lacking here
They all bend down to shame and fear
Some stupid statue is all I get
And all their rudeness, sure, they'll forget

Well

I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
I'm in it over my head
