The Lost Ship Tavern Lyrics

Now let me introduce you to the place we all belong To drown our tears forget the fears and keep our spirit strong There’s sailormen and pirates, sweet ladies giving winks And by the bar a well-known star well at least so she thinks Goes one drink then another, all the voices getting loud The last bell rings, a lady sings, the smoke becomes a cloud And when you hear at your back broken bottles crashing down You sip your gin, forgive the sin, start searching up her gown We know it’s kind of funny the way we’re all tied here With open mouth, feels like a drought, we need another beer The one-eyed and the crippled, the toothless and the fool We’re all lost here, we’re off the pier like sinking in a pool And when our knives are shining we’re stranger to remorse The tension’s high, we’re eye to eye, our manners getting coarse You know who starts the fighting will spill the blood of foes A losers’ brawl, a man will fall, that’s how the story goes The stories we’re all telling so scary to your ear Will make you stun, will make you run one hundred miles from here The one-eyed and the crippled, the toothless and the fool We’re all ghosts here, no man comes near you cannot change this rule And when cross bones are showing you’re staring at our skulls Now don’t you shout, drink our stout, we’re human race’s culls There’s no way out left for us, a devil drives the hearse You’re welcome to this rendez-vous the lost ship tavern curse
