Sinking... |
We ain’t seen land for 13 months |
The water’s run dry |
The Captains drunk, stoned in his bunk |
I seen the bosun gettin' high |
My mouth’s so dry from the rum that came |
From a bottle now long gone |
St Christopher if you hear this now |
Give us hope to carry on |
The albatross flew across the bow |
Below deck the captain roared |
Bring me my gun |
I want the Opium |
Stoned he shot the bird |
When the wind died down the only sound |
Was the whisper of his dying words |
«Beware don’t stare at the Marie Celeste |
This quest of ours is cursed» |
The full moon light burned bright as fire |
As fever gripped the crew |
To the east Ahab’s screams |
Split the winding sheets in two |
To the west six silhouettes |
Hung sailors now long gone |
We prayed that night that in the morning light |
We’d all get blown to kingdom come |
Just as we started sinking |
The harbour lights came on |
Arms of angels carried us |
From the rocks that we broke upon |
We swam into still waters |
The band began to play |
I heard again that sweet refrain |
Lord oh happy day |
Its gonna be alright |
(I hope it’s gonna be alright) |
