Captain

Captain captain won't you take me round the world with you

Captain captain on the love boat I will be the crew

Oh and I'll be with you

I can scent the filthy seas sulphur in the morning breeze

How are we to find our way Without your guiding hand I'll stray

Round the mountains made of tyres bridges stacked like Eiffel towers

Somehow you will navigate through the maze and out the gate Away

Health and safety pirates hide like rag worm just above the tide

For unsuspecting men like me to nip and trip me as I flee

Voices call from swollen lungs to other threats in other tongues

Aliens from other worlds will meet us to exchange a word or two

Captain captain won't you take me round the world with you

Captain captain on the love boat I will be the crew

Oh and I'll be with you

Somewhere is a far off land with crystal water golden sand

And all the trees are full of fruit light years from the grimy soot

'till you say the final word at the end of all known worlds

You take my hand and comfort me now we cross the endless sea

Forever ever

Life is like an endless sea I'll make it if I know you're with me

We can take the highest wave with you I am safe

Captain captain won't you take me round the world with you

Captain captain on the love boat I will be the crew

Oh and I'll be with you
