I don't wanna stay at your party
I don't wanna talk with your friends
I don't wanna vote for your president
I just wanna be your tugboat captain
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
I don't wanna stay at your party
I don't wanna talk to your friends
I don't wanna vote for your president
I just wanna be your tugboat captain
There's a place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
There's place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to see
There's a place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd be happy
I don't wanna talk with your friends
I don't wanna vote for your president
I just wanna be your tugboat captain
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
I don't wanna stay at your party
I don't wanna talk to your friends
I don't wanna vote for your president
I just wanna be your tugboat captain
There's a place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to be
The place I'd be happy
There's place I'd like to be
The place I'd like to see
There's a place I'd like to be
There's a place I'd be happy

And you'd be wrong. It's not political.
And yes, the "tugboat captain" part is indeed a reference to Sterling Morrison, Dean Wareham's hero and main influence on guitar.
