Sinking...

We ain't seen land for 13 months

The water's running dry

The Captains drunk, stoned in his bunk

I seen the bosun gettm the rum

that came from a bottle now long gone

St Chr

The Albatross flew across the bow

Below ding high

My mouth 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 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 sheet in two

To the west six silouettes

Hung sailors now long gone

We prayed that night that in the morning light

We'd all be blown to kingdom come

Just as we started sinking

The harbour lights came on

Arms of angels carried us

From the rocks we brokblown to kingdom come

Just as we started sinking

The harbour lights came on

Arms of angels carried us

From the rock we broke upon

As we swam into the still waters

The band began to play

I heard again that sweet refrain

Lord 0 happy day

Its gotta be alright
