Worse Things Happen At Sea Lyrics
Honestly, relax my dear it's clear that we are done
It doesn't take a scientist to figure out that one
It's obvious the way you move the way you hold your head
The way you hide your pretty eyes and shift across the bed
You say worse things happen at sea
I say worse things have happened to me
Honestly I'll be fine, this isn't my first time
I've taken blows before and every time I have survived
you made it clear you didn't care you never did pretend
And in the end at least you never try to fuck my friends
You say worse things happen at sea
I said worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And we're not gonna talk anymore
Well honestly it doesnt matter I know better than
To cry over spilt milk wasted effort spoilt plans
We're adults here so shed no tears I'm sure we can be friends
I'll nod and smile and watch you in the arms of other men
You say worse things happen at sea
I say worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And we're not gonna talk anymore
We got nothing to talk for
Well honestly your honesty it has emerged unscathed
And I hope you're doin fine
Well me I'm doin fucking great
And I wouldnt want to waste another second of your time
I know your face I know my place
So you watch yours I'll keep to mine
They say worse things happen at see
I said worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And were not gonna talk anymore
We got nothing to talk for
You got nothing to be sorry for
I got noone to care for
This is the worst thing that's happened to me
I guess worse things happen at sea
It doesn't take a scientist to figure out that one
It's obvious the way you move the way you hold your head
The way you hide your pretty eyes and shift across the bed
I say worse things have happened to me
I've taken blows before and every time I have survived
you made it clear you didn't care you never did pretend
And in the end at least you never try to fuck my friends
I said worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And we're not gonna talk anymore
To cry over spilt milk wasted effort spoilt plans
We're adults here so shed no tears I'm sure we can be friends
I'll nod and smile and watch you in the arms of other men
I say worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And we're not gonna talk anymore
We got nothing to talk for
And I hope you're doin fine
Well me I'm doin fucking great
And I wouldnt want to waste another second of your time
I know your face I know my place
So you watch yours I'll keep to mine
I said worse things have happened to me
Bitter eyes the bedroom floor
And were not gonna talk anymore
We got nothing to talk for
You got nothing to be sorry for
I got noone to care for
I guess worse things happen at sea

this is quite an exceptional song. the way he sings the last verse is perfect.
Favourite Frank Turner song.
Excellent song. LOVE IT. And yeah, I think the "at least you never tried to fuck my friends" is supposed to be ironic.
Quite possibly the greatest break-up/getting dumped song of all time.
Nah....not even close
Nah....not even close
This song just summed up my life. The only line that doesn't fit is "At least you never tried to fuck my friends" I only wish she had the taste to appreciate Frank Turner so she could hear this.
I hope your doing fine, coz me I'm doing fuckin' great.
@MrTangerineSpeedos That line "At least you never tried to fuck my friends" is kind of a joke, and a play on words actually. The woman he is talking about did sleep with "friends" of Frank's apparently but in doing so, they are no longer Frank's friends.

It's kind of beautiful how such a shitty circumstance can produce such a powerful song.

I am sorry that happened to you too though dude. I hope things are much much better for you now <3

Oh yes, i'll nod and smile. And secretly burn in my skin.
The way he sings "this is the worst thing that's happened to me" kills me.
I probably couldn't have bared listening to this song a few months back.
He's said that this girl slept with his best friend, so I think the "at least you never try to fuck my friends" bit is either ironic or rejecting the guy she slept with.
Worse Things have happened to me?
I love how you can hear in his voice how strong he is trying to be but you can tell that he's falling apart slowly. "And I hope you're doin fine, Well me I'm doin fucking great" - you can hear the painful sarcasm in his tone of voice and you can hear him falling apart here: "You got nothing to be sorry for, I got noone to care for"
