ezra bell - captain alberti bundy (of the ssez bell) lyrics
it’s a grave misunderstanding when they say i hate my family
when those liars claim that i know right nor reef
i could have graduated harvard, could have got myself some job
but i just knew it was the pirates life for me
so i memorized some pirate songs and fashioned out of styrofoam a fancy friggin’ ocean faring craft
and i set out from my island home, perspective and a pile of bones, and promised that i never would be back
oh i promised that i never would be back
and my first day on the waves i met some yacht transporting slavеs
and i knew that the vessеl’s captain was a crook
i appeared upon the bow and said i’m the captain now
and if you squint i’ll shoot you dead with my good looks
i was big man on the yard i found the hold was filled with scotch
and by the evening, boy, our party had begun
i set free all the slave, we put the captain in a cage, and drank to scotch as we pretended it was rum
we danced the deck until the dawn, cheer+cheering our [?]
we slept beneath the whispering ocean breeze
and while we dreamed our pirates tales the ocean blew some mighty gale
and sank my ship and all had drowned but me
and i washed upon a darkened shore in front of a department store
i tried my trade in women’s shoes
the boss said i’d arrived at last, so forget about your pirate past, this is how it feels to be of use
so i set up for the circus act i dragged my ass to work and back and figured my wounds in time would close
late at night my limbs were numb [?] i had drunk to dumb and i began to plan one final voyage
i began to plan one final voyage
so i learned again my pirate songs and fashioned out of styrofoam a newer fancy fairing ocean craft
i sail beneath the sky alone, a specter of an irish brogue, you’d like to be of use but i must pass
you’d like to be of use but i must pass
yes, you’d like to be of use but i must pass
