Black & Gold |
Once you were all sea-folk and you sailed upon the seas |
You crossed the roaring ocean with the devil at your heels |
Your time has come again now, I’ll tell you how this will unfold |
I wanna see the western ocean painted black and gold |
Welcome to the seaside |
It’s been occupied |
Burrow to the bottom |
And behold! |
-The mother lode |
Of black and gold |
Yes, once you were all sea-wolves, proudest on the western seas |
These days you linger in the shade of taller trees |
But the devil has a weak spot for wounded and the poor |
For the hungry and the crafty and the wicked and the small |
Onward to the seaside |
It’s been occupied |
Burrow to the bottom |
And behold! |
-The mother lode |
Of black and gold |
Keep that fire burning, keep a keen eye on the count |
The bounty of the ocean, astronomical amounts! |
You all know where it’s coming from, you all know where it’s going |
Yes, in the end I always had a cut of every coin |
Welcome to the seaside |
It’s been occupied |
Burrow to the bottom |
And behold! |
-The mother lode |
You enjoy the seaside now |
Blindly occupied |
Burrow to the bottom |
And behold! |
-The mother lode |
Of black and gold |
