Margot & The Nuclear So And So's - A Sea Chanty Of Sorts Lyrics

I’m still here in 2019.

im glad one of my coworkers showed me this band. hands down their music is food for the soul and i went through a break up with who i thought and sadly still do the one. it wasnt all ger fault nor was it all mine. an its hard to sleep these songs help me sleep at night

8 years later and still the saddest song I've ever heard...

I wish I could go back and listen to this entire album all over again for the first time just to remember the feelings I got when I first heard it. God, I didn't realize how much I missed/love this band.

LYRICS:

Do what you like, you don't have to be nice
Just pour yourself a cup of coffee
Leave anytime, you don't have to be right
You've gotta live the best you know how

And if you love, well that should be enough
Instead it turns your joy into sorrow
And I can't breath, with the dust of retreat
I'm choking on the fumes of my wayward back

My woman lied, she was a witch in disguise
And she dressed her wounds in sack cloth and ashes
The children weep, at their dead mother's feet
Her husband's drunk, a wolf in a sheep's skin

And when we kissed, it didn't feel poisonous
And when you cried, I dried off your blue eyes
She smiles at me, as she is falling asleep
Says, "We gotta live the best we know how to."

Listening to this in 2017 and falling in love with it all over again

I loved these guys in 7th grade and listening them now its like damn theyre still good!

This song reminds me of the opening song from the original Silent Hill.

I love this band so much. I have different seasons where each song of theirs cuts deeper than others. makes me realize how special this project was

the water looks like bacon

And boats look like sheep

The deepest comment yet

after lestining to neutral milk hotel .. this is kinda meh ..

This is a masterpiece

@Samuel Becker Really ? think so ? Maybe i'll give it a second go

Well, a melancholy masterpiece. But do! Animal is good too

I'd recommend it, their albums vary enough that you should find one you really like!

I'm so upset that they broke up )): They never got the recognition they deserve and that confuses me honestly

Alyssa Renee they didn't break up. They just put out a demo album last year

Best song I've heard from them even though I love all others :3

Got the pleasure of seeing them live at a tiny venue in Chicago years ago...amazing...

so amazing ^U^

Still is amazing~

Can you write the lyric please? I'm not english...

@dtet143 Thanks :)

@Michele Santapaola anytime(:

the most underrated band... ever?

@A Mill Ever.

I don't necessarily think underrated. Everyone who's heard this band is in love. Underexposed, definitely.

this song gives me a sort of eerie, almost empty feeling but it's also very nice. i really like this song; it makes me feel things.

this song is absolutely beautiful. I wish every band had this kind of talent.

For all the people wondering about torrenting: if the song isnt new, download it. Artists only get the proceeds in the 2-3 weeks following the songs release. Despite
What most people think, the artist really doesnt see any of the money When you purchase old songs because that money goes to pay for other fees such as Production, or to the label, if said artist has one. if its old, download it. If its new, buy it

Love this song....it's just so....melancholy.

learn to torrent, literally so easy.

If you guys really liked margot and nuclear so and so's you'd actually buy their music instead of torrenting and stealing.

You're commenting on YouTube. Dummy. Also who's to say we're not buying it? Get bent edgelord

I can like their music but feel indifferent to them as people. Yes I've replied to a 6 yr old comment

I've loved some of the songs by this band for years... how did I never hear this song until today? Christ I'm slacking, I love this goddamned song!

this song is perfect

the pirate bay! using btorrent or utorrent.

Heeeeeeeeeeeey ;)

This song makes me depressed as hell but I love it.

I think the question you should be asking is, "where can I buy Margot albums, so I can support the working musicians who made them?" Get a frickin' job kid - there's lots of ways to save money - you don't need to do it by ripping off an independent hard-working band that uses this music to scrape by a living. The're not Metallica - they're not making millions on this.

cup of coffee

This .... This is the pure definition of music. When you feel as if you are listening to a section of the artist's soul. And you feel right with him, even if you have never been close to what he's experienced. That ... this ..... is music.

@Chaos1273 and @xxorionloralxx Amazon.com will let you buy the cd's or download in digital form. Not buying them with small groups like these is exactly what will prevent them from having the money to make more albums with good music. We need all the good music we can get.

Downloading it all first. ...Then buying it all when I have money because I feel bad stealing from them. Anyone know where I can buy t-shirts, too?

or you should probably pay for this amazing music and support them...just sayin

@cmonanddance He says wayward Bride. FYI

This such a beautiful song

it is a song that helps you fly.... love it!

his voice makes me want to roll into a ball of sunshine.
its like he sings from the soul.

Margot <3

Saw them live last month. Absolutely loved it.

awesommme :D
