Rhode Island - Shipwreck Lyrics

Bobbing boxes in milky water off a coastal town
Men drag things on to roof-racks, women tie them down
A shipwreck brings the whole town to the beach
A shipwreck makes the whole town thankful
Something's happening today, hip hip hooray

I stole some videos, you stole some spoons
You gave them to your mother
I stayed in the whole of June
Old porn films and family holidays
Images that meant something to someone somewhere
I caught my reflection on the screen
Me on them, them on me, there's nothing inbetween

And I asked you to collect me
And you asked me where I'd been
And I held your back so tightly as we rode down to the beach
Threw the videos in the sea, and they'll drift away
They'll drift away, they'll drift away, they'll drift away
