jeff russo - ship of fools lyrics

[pre-chorus]
we’re setting sail to the place on the map
from which no one has ever returned
drawn by the promise of the joker and the thief
by the light of the crosses that burned
drawn by the promise of the women and the lace
and the gold and the cotton and pearls
it’s the place where they keep all the darkness you need
you sail away from the light of the world on this trip, baby

[verse 1]
we’re setting sail to the place on the map
from which no one has ever returned
drawn by the promise of the joker and the thief
by the light of the crosses that burned
drawn by the promise of the women and the lace
and the gold and the cotton and pearls
it’s the place where they keep all the darkness you need
you sail away from the light of the world on this trip, baby

[chorus]
you will pay tomorrow
you’re gonna pay tomorrow
you will pay tomorrow

[verse 2]
save me. save me from tomorrow
i don’t want to sail with this ship of fools
oh, save me. save me from tomorrow
i don’t want to sail with this ship of fools
i want to run and hide right now
no no no no no
avarice and greed are gonna drive you over the endless sea
they will leave you drifting in the shallows
or drowning in the oceans of history
travellin’ the world, you’re in search of no good
but i’m sure you’ll build your sodom like you knew you would
using all the good people for your galley slaves
as you’re little boat thunders through the warning waves
but you don’t

[chorus]
you will pay tomorrow
you’re gonna pay tomorrow
you will pay tomorrow

[verse 3]
save me. save me from tomorrow
i don’t want to sail with this ship of fools (oh)
save me. save me from tomorrow
i don’t want to sail with this ship of fools
where’s it comin’ from?
where’s it goin’ to now?
it’s just a it’s just a ship of fools
