Opium Tea

Conway Savage, Nick Cave

[Verse 1]
Here I sleep the morning through
'Til the wail of the call to prayer awakes me
And there is nothing at all to do
But rise and follow the day wherever it takes me

[Chorus 1]
I stand at the window and I look at the sea
And I am what I am and what will be will be
I stand at the window and I look at the sea
And I make me a pot of opium tea

[Verse 2]
Down at the port I watch the boats come in
Watching the boats come in can do somethin' to ya
And the kids gather 'round with an outstretched hand
And I toss them a dirham or two

[Chorus 2]
Well, I wonder if my children are thinking of me
'Cause I am what I am and what will be will be
I wonder if my kids are thinking of me
And I smile and I sip my opium tea

[Verse 3]
At night the sea lashes the red rust ramparts
In the shapes of hooded men who pass me
And the moan and the wind laughs and laughs and laughs
The strange lot that fate has cast me

[Chorus 3]
The cats on the rampart sing merrily
That he is what he is and what will be will be
The cats on the rampart sing merrily
And I sit and I drink my opium tea

[Verse 4]
I'm a prisoner here, I can never go home
There is nothing here to win or lose
There are no choices need to be made at all
Not even the choice of havin' to choose

[Chorus 4]
But I'm a prisoner yes, but I'm also free
'Cause I am what I am and what will be will be
I'm a prisoner here but I'm also free
And I smile and I sip my opium tea
