Mad Captain

 

Oh my god, the man’s insane!

Tryin’ to take us all to Hell!

Watch it all go down the drain

While he says we’re doing well.

 

So you say we’re doing well…

Hard to see the other shore…

So you say you know the course?

Maybe so, but I can’t tell!

 

Oh my god, the man’s insane!

Has us lost, without a doubt!

Took our trust and played us all… again!

Time has come to cast him out!

 

Do you think we’ll get him out?

I can’t take it anymore!

Tried to keep him from the helm,

But he took the wheel as well.

 

Oh my god, the man’s insane!

Squandered all we had to sell.

Now it’s all gone down the drain,

Don’t you hear the funeral bell?

 

Holy men ring out their bells,

Stir up hatreds by the score!

So you say you know the source?

Holy men make holy hells!

 

Oh my god, the man’s insane!

Mad Captain yet in charge.

Watch us all float down the drain

While his friends are livin’ large!
