REO Speedwagon parody lyrics

Take It on the Ocean

For use with Take It on the Run

(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)

Heard it as leg - end (of) you
And your Fly - ing Dutchman too
But it only tells of you messing around
You say you were a boyfriend
Had a break - up like the world-end
You call yourself blue and easy to bring down
But I know
you’re insane-could
Be her not stay - ing’s rea - son was good
And the tales grow taller on
about your fright
But I’m telling you Davy
That I don’t think it’s true Davy
And even if it is
Keep this in mind

Why take it on the ocean Davy
If that’s the way you lost it Davy
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it
Not for a minute

You love the organ
But can’t take it on the ocean

You’re thinking of your wild slice
You’re put-out but you be-human twice?
You say ocean is-your home but you need the organ
But I can hear blood pumping
But not right between your lungs
Why not put your heart back again
