| Song | Man Overboard |
| Artist | Lloyd Cole |
| Album | Broken Record |
| Mary, what can I do | |
| to make you feel same as I do? | |
| Stow me away to Ballico Bay | |
| But I’ve got no sea legs at all | |
| Sailors, they know the score | |
| They don’t come to port every storm | |
| They’ve got fair weather gals | |
| and rainy day dames | |
| and they’re gone on the wing before dawn | |
| Man overboard against all of the evidence | |
| Girl under seige doth protest | |
| that she wants to be alone | |
| The clown’s in the water | |
| The ship’s pulling out | |
| The circus won’t ever leave town | |
| He sees a lover and | |
| she sees another man overboard | |
| So she channels Garbo | |
| Carves a halo of smoke | |
| Still he spies through his watery eyes | |
| and cries Mary, what can I do? | |
| The clown’s in the water | |
| The ship’s pulling out | |
| The circus won’t ever leave town | |
| He sees a lover and | |
| she sees another man overboard | |
| another man overboard | |
| another man overboard |
| Mary, what can I do | |
| to make you feel same as I do? | |
| Stow me away to Ballico Bay | |
| But I' ve got no sea legs at all | |
| Sailors, they know the score | |
| They don' t come to port every storm | |
| They' ve got fair weather gals | |
| and rainy day dames | |
| and they' re gone on the wing before dawn | |
| Man overboard against all of the evidence | |
| Girl under seige doth protest | |
| that she wants to be alone | |
| The clown' s in the water | |
| The ship' s pulling out | |
| The circus won' t ever leave town | |
| He sees a lover and | |
| she sees another man overboard | |
| So she channels Garbo | |
| Carves a halo of smoke | |
| Still he spies through his watery eyes | |
| and cries Mary, what can I do? | |
| The clown' s in the water | |
| The ship' s pulling out | |
| The circus won' t ever leave town | |
| He sees a lover and | |
| she sees another man overboard | |
| another man overboard | |
| another man overboard |
