Anchors Up Lyrics

It's our daily routine work
To sail the ship on open surf
Waking up for daily chores
Swab the deck and man the oars
Always try to keep it neat
Our cabins whole and place of sleep
You may not like the way we live
But we love our sailing ship
Sailing on the 7 seas
Another day is sure to please
Today your job is almost over
Tomorrow's goal is to keep it sober
Captain says "OK, lets break
Come on boys let's see our mates"
Another day our pride is shown
And now we're going back home

Chorus x4

Oh, Anchors Up, It's bound for home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
