F                            C       
Just one more drink and then I       

Bb                  F
should be on my way home.

F                C
I'm not entirely sure                

Bb                   F
what you're talking about.

F                      C
I've had a really nice time,     

Bb                     F
but my dogs need to be fed.

F                            C
I must say that in the right light 

Bb               
you look like Shackelton.
[Chorus]
F             C      
Comment allez-vous ce soir?

   Bb                  F
Je suis comme ci comme ca.

F              C            
Yes a penguin taught me French back 

Bb          F
in Antartica.
[Verse 2]
F                        C
Oh, I could show you the way

Bb               F 
shadows colonize snow.

F                      C
Ice breaking up on the bay 

Bb                F
off the Lassiter coast.

F                      C
Light falling over the pole as 

Bb                F
every longitude leads 

F                      C
up to your frost bitten feet

Bb               
Oh you're very sweet.
[Chorus]
F                 C                          
Thank you for the flowers and the 

Bb           F
book by Derrida, 

F             C            
but I must be getting back to 

Bb           F 
dear Antarctica.
[Bridge]
F          
    Say do you have a ship 

Bb
    and a dozen able men 

C
    that maybe you could lend me?
