I was standing with my baby on the boardwalk and the ghost ship was there,

G (320003@1)        AmI (x02210@1)took her to the pictures,

Em (022000@1)     Cand (x32010@1)then I took her home,

G...
and then I took her to heaven, you know what i mean...

Umm... I don't want to stop it or anything but I am going to go with some of the 
chuckles from the

audience out there and suggest that a few of these punters have spotted the same 
inconscitencies in

this song as I have. Um, when did this song become about some woman?

Well I kinda figured that the guys love all the evil ghost ship, scary demonic muah 
boogyman kinda

stuff. But as soon as you start to talk about love, now you have the ladies listening. 
Because the

ladies want to imagine that they are making love to the singer.

What?!?!?!

Nah I read it in Rolling Stone go with me, right... 1e and a 2e and 3, 4

Alright, Alright, just a minute here. I touch my baby on her ghost ship??? Where exactly 
is a woman's

ghost ship?

Don't you know?

I don't think he knows! Anyway, anyway I cant believe I am saying this but i think that 
he is onto

something. but you may be coming in a little too fast, now if you want to do this love 
thing you have

got to create a bit of a mood. You have to get inside the head of a female girl, tell 
them what they

want to hear.

Can I give you an example?

I dont even know what this song is about anymore.
It's like foreplay
Yeah
No!!!
Its not about foreplay, its about a horrible spectral ship that comes and gets sinners.
What are they wearing?
NO!!!
There is no focus, if there is a woman on it then its because she is a sinner. Do you 
get it? Right?
Yeah

GThe (320003@1)woman's a sinner,

Dshe's (xx0232@1)going to be dragged away,
