the tallest man on earth – ship of fools lyrics
[verse 1]
went to see the captain, strangest i could find
laid my proposition down, laid it on the line
i won’t slave for beggar’s pay, likewise gold and jewels
but i would slave to learn the way to sink your ship of fools
[chorus]
ship of fools on a cruel sea
ship of fools sail away from me
it was later than i thought when i first believed you
now i cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[verse 2]
saw your first ship sink and drown, from rocking of the boat
and all that could not sink or swim was just left there to float
i won’t leave you drifting down but whoa it makes me wild
with thirty years upon my head
to have you call me child
[chorus]
ship of fools on a cruel sea
ship of fools sail away from me
it was later than i thought when i first believed you
now i cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[instrumental]
[chorus]
ship of fools on a cruel sea
ship of fools sail away from me
it was later than i thought when i first believed you
now i cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[verse 3]
the bottles stand as empty
as they were filled before
time there was and plenty
but from that cup no more
though i could not caution all
i still might warn a few
don’t lend your hand to raise no flag atop no ship of fools
[chorus]
ship of fools on a cruel sea
ship of fools sail away from me
it was later than i thought when i first believed you
now i cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[outro]
it was later than i thought when i first believed you
now i cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
