* 4-bar intro
"Tell me quick," said old McFee,
What's this all have to do with me?
I spend all my time at sea alone now.
Is there something I should know,
Something hidden down below a level of your conversation?"
Well, he turned away before the answer.
Though I yelled aloud, he refused to hear.
It became too clear.
So he went as we pulled out.
I was left in constant doubt.
Everything I asked about seemed private.
The ctain strolled the bridge one night.
I stopped him in the evening light
To ask him, would it be alright to join him.
Well, he stood there like some island,
And he listened like some temple,
And then he turned away.
All along the faithful coast we moved silent, like a ghost.
A timeless sea, a tireless host posessed us.
The wind came building from the cold north-west,
And soon the waves began to crest,
Crashing 'cross the forward deck, all hands lost.
I alone survived the sinking.
I alone posessed the tools
On that ship of fools,
Ship of fools,
On that ship of fools,
That ship of fools.
