AgesandAges AgesandAges - Navy Parade (escape from the Black River Bluffs)

I set out from that old Black River bluff around an early age
I never did like it there so much, so when the hour finally came
I went out there and enlisted in that old Navy Parade

(Counter I don’t wanna end up in Poplar Bluff, don’t make me
Leave this navy parade)

Well, I found myself in the Pacific Ocean waves among a chosen few
But I fell asleep on watch one night and that’s the worst thing that you can do
And when I woke up, there was a flashlight shining right there in my face
(Counter repeat)
Here’s what that voice called out to me
Lord knows, you tried to fake it
But you’re better off taking any step
That leads you further from the way you’ll never be
Beyond this mess, there’s something left
And it’s still within your reach
So if you get there before I get there
You better save something for me
(Counter repeat)

Da Da Da
(Oh the toil and strife, the fire and flame, I’m going down in a similar way
But I’ll be counting every step that I’m taking from this Navy Parade)
