Tom: E
E
Just one more drink and then I
N.C.
should be on my way home.
N.C.
I'm not entirely sure
E
what you're talking about.
B
I've had a really nice time,
A E
but my dogs need to be fed.
B
I must say that in the right light,
A
you look like Shackelton.
[Chorus]
E B
Comment allez-vous ce soir?
A E
Je suis comme ci comme ca.
B
Yes, a penguin taught me French
A E
back in Antarctica.
[Verse]
E
Oh, I could show you the way
N.C.
shadows colonize snow.
N.C.
Ice breaking up on the bay
E
off the Lassiter coast.
B
Light falling over the pole
A E
as every longitude leads
B
up to your frostbitten feet.
A
Oh, you're very sweet,
[Chorus]
E B
thank you for the flowers
A E
and the book by Derrida,
B A E
but I must be getting back to dear Antarctica.
[Bridge]
C#m A
......Say, do you have a ship,
B
and a dozen able men
E
that maybe you could lend me?
E
Oh, Antarctica
E A
Oh, Antarctica
E A
Oh, Antarctica ...... Oh, Antarctica
