Imagine sailing solo around the world   Only to find you've missed a continent out   And as your happy turns choppy and tidal wave swirls   You're wondering why there's no one about      At least Captain Scott actually stood on the spot   Where he planned to put up Union Jack   And though Captain Cook cursed the map that he took   He got near enough for native's attack      That's how it feels trying to navigate you   Even with compass and infinite time   Just when I think I've found some part that's new   I find a flag already up that's not mine      Circling you is journey minus view   Exploration without reason or reward   'Cause when I get near you use an arrow or spear   To prevent my heart ever being shored      The earth ain't flat but it's a simple doormat   Compared to your unclimbable self   The desolate terrain you have to cross to your brain   Just one of your slippery shelves      That's how it feels trying to navigate you   Even with compass and infinite time   Just when I think I've found some part that's new   I find a flag already up that's not mine      And if I ever get close I'll need a banner or post   To hang it from, first there or not   So voyage may uncover a sister or brother   And a friendship that Colombus forgot.
