'I'm The Captain' - Lyrics

You open your eyes
To the thunder of the waves
You scratch another line
Keeping track of all the days

You slip on a shirt
Check the markings on a map
You find your leather boots
Underneath your feather cap

You take in the scene
As you walk through the door
The sunlight through the sails
And the cannons on the floor

Then one hundred men
All see their master rise
And watch you take the wheel
As you navigate the skies

‘Alrighty, back to work!’

I’m the captain
Aye, aye, aye
I’m the captain
Argh, Argh


The wind in your hair
The sea in your soul
You’ve sailed seven years
And you’ve plundered years of gold

So, now you’re on course
To a paradise of sand
A place where you can rest
Live and die a happy man

A crewmate voice calls
Out high from up above
A beach of golden shores
An island in the sun

But out from the side
It’s too late for turning back
You see another ship
And they’re preparing to attack


‘Alrighty then…’

Chorus

‘The time has come to stand and fight
To hold them back with all your might
So, raise the flags, set the sails
Load the cannons, we ain’t going to jail!

Pull the anchor, all hands on deck
Batten the hatches, all hands on deck
To all me hearties, it’s been an honour
On my signal prepare to fire…
FIRE!’

Chorus

‘What do we do, Captain?’
‘Brace yourselves!’
‘Incoming!’
‘Me peg leg.’
‘Hold!’
‘Hit the decks.’
‘Arr me hearty!’
‘We’ve been hit!’
‘Fire!’
‘Ahh!’
‘Incoming!
‘Fire!!!’
‘We’re going down...’

‘It is an honour to die and fight…
On this ship with you.
I will see you in the next life.
Argh!’
