Albatross 3 The Tiger Lillies

So the saviour is killed
And for a while depends
The jury it will be out
From fair weather friends

No matter how barbarous
If the wind blows fair
For a murdered saviour
Nobody will care

Because each one
In selfishness does live
While their interests are fulfilled
In evil they’ll forgive

So the murdered albatross
Crocodile the tears
With the wind the mariner
Has nothing to fear

But when they are becalmed
Then they seek revenge
Then their morality
It must be avenged

Then their saviour’s memory
Then they do respect
And hang the albatross
Around the mariner’s neck
