Turkish Song of the Damned |
| I come old friend from hell tonight |
| Across the rotting sea |
| Nor the nails of the Cross |
| Nor the blood of Christ |
| Can bring you help this eve |
| The dead have come to |
| Claim a debt from thee |
| They stand outside your door |
| Four score and three |
| Did you keep a watch for a dead man’s wind |
| Did you see the woman with the comb in her hand |
| Wailing away on the wall on the strand |
| As you danced to the Turkish song of the damned |
| You remember when the ship went down |
| You left me on the deck |
| The captain’s corpse jumped up |
| And threw his arms around my neck |
| For all these years I’ve had him on my back |
| This debt cannot be paid with all your jack |
| And as I sit and talk to you I see your face go white |
| This shadow hanging over me |
| Is no trick of the light |
| The spectre on my back will soon be free |
| The dead have come to claim |
| A debt from thee |
