[Verse 1]
The captain's in a coma, the lieutenant's on a drunk;
The owner's in his cabin with his special friend, the monk;
The midget's on the bridge, dispensing platitudes and junk -
Those wild and special places
Those strange and dangerous places
Those wild, wild old places
[Refrain]
It's a Ship of Fools
[Verse 2]
The nurse in black seamed stockings, she's already on patrol
For fake fur starlets panicked by the watering-hole;
Everybody's waiting for the drama to unfold
In those cold and treasured places
Those old and degenerate places;
Those posed, posed, empty faces
[Refrain]
It's a Ship of Fools
[Bridge]
Run, rabbit, run, you're the only one that can do it;
Turn, baby, turn, there's a ring of fire
And you've got to go through it
Fun, baby, fun, when the sands have run to the limit
Turn, baby, turn, there's a ring of fire and you're in it
The captain's in a coma, the lieutenant's on a drunk;
The owner's in his cabin with his special friend, the monk;
The midget's on the bridge, dispensing platitudes and junk -
Those wild and special places
Those strange and dangerous places
Those wild, wild old places
[Refrain]
It's a Ship of Fools
[Verse 2]

For fake fur starlets panicked by the watering-hole;

[Refrain]
It's a Ship of Fools
[Bridge]
Run, rabbit, run, you're the only one that can do it;
Turn, baby, turn, there's a ring of fire
And you've got to go through it
Fun, baby, fun, when the sands have run to the limit
Turn, baby, turn, there's a ring of fire and you're in it
