A Pirate Looks at Forty lyrics
Mother mother ocean I have heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
Youve seen it all youve seen it all
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen
Most of em dream most of em dream
Yes I am a pirate two hundred years too late
The cannons don't thunder there's nothin to plunder
Im an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late arriving too late
I've done a bit of smugglin Ive run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy miami but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got stop wishin got to go fishin
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends just a few friends
Just a few friends just a few friends
