Abney Park - The Ballad of Captain Robert (Deluxe Edition) lyrics

Artist: Abney Park

album: Ancient World


[1.] Captain Robert took his men
And flew to Prague and back again
Some fell off and some dropped dead
And some put bullets through their head
[2.] A skeleton crew is what came back
And once in port he filled his sack
With bribes and cash and fame and coin
Things to make a new crew join
[3.] Captain Robert took his crew
To Shangri-la and Timbuktu
Some went crazy, some got mad
Some he kicked off ship in Chad
[4.] A skeleton crew is what came back
Who'd lived through mutiny, plague, and flak
Strong and calloused, brave and tired
All those who could stay inspired
[5.] Captain Robert took his ship
To Beijing and to Mozambique
Stir crazy or in irons he clapped them
One of them tried to kiss the captain
[6.] Captain Robert looked at his crew
And saw that everyone was new
The crew got broke through misadventure
No one could take another gut wrencher
