Rated +1 I agree with GarettM. The song is obviously about Jesus. Maybe it's about Jesus being on a boat. So, maybe it's about Jesus and his disciples being on a boat, and the boat is compared to there faith in God? I think at the towards the end of the song, when they say they never thought they could be on a boat, I think they refer it to Jesus walk on water, and well, they're on a boat and there was a storm. And how Peter is afraid and doesn't have enough faith, and almost drowns in the water to follow Jesus. So in a way, maybe the boat is Jesus too. For the part that says 'never thought i'd see the day' I think it's about the Second Coming of Christ, and how we don't know it's coming (even though people have theories of it the 'big boat' coming there way). And the mermaid is apparently Mary Magdalene, and how she was a prositute. And she's on the boat with Jesus and his twelve disciples. And even though the lyrics suggest that they had some type of certain 'relations' with Mary Magdalene, it refers to when Jesus cast out the demons from her. The part flippin' copies at Kinko's is about how people don't have any belief in the 'boat' and they miss out on how important it is about being a Christian (this is compared to the flippy-floppies, the swim trunks, the flippin' burgers). Though, I think the Santana Champ and the burger is Jesus Christ's body (the burger) and blood (Santana Champ). The dolphin repersents the same thing in a way. 'But this ain't Sea World, this is real as it gets' is when people say they go to church, just to say the go to church. This is not Sea World. The dolphin is the holy spirit, it's not fake, it's 'real as it gets'. The part about taking the picture about the boat is when people are impressed with the person's faith in God, thus making people follow and doing the same thing. Fuck land, I'm on a boat, motherfucker (this is being compared to taking the 'good road' or the 'bad road'. The 'good road' is to heaven, with Jesus. The 'bad road' is to hell. The land is the bad road, take the boat to go to heaven) Fuck trees, I climb buoys, motherfucker (same thing with being on land or the boat) I'm on the deck with my boys, motherfucker (Jesus and his 'boys' are on the boat) This boat engine make noise, motherfucker (the Holy Ghost is strong) I'm the king of the world On a boat like Leo If you're on the shore Then you're sure not me-oh (same thing. how great it feels to be Christian, compares to not believing in the one and only God) That's all I can say as of now, but I'm probably going to play this for Church. How great it is to believe in God! :) |

Ridingondreams, are you on land, or on a boat? For me, I am on a boat, with Jesus. :) My life in the Lord is as great as the boat. Read the lyrics again. |
