[Verse 1]
Went to see the captain, strangest I could find
Laid my proposition down, laid it on the line
I won't slave for beggar's pay, likewise gold and jewels
But I would slave to learn the way to sink your ship of fools
[Chorus]
Ship of fools on a cruel sea
Ship of fools sail away from me
It was later than I thought when I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[Verse 2]
Saw your first ship sink and drown from rocking of the boat
And all that could not sink or swim were just left there to float
But I won't leave you drifting down, oh, it makes me wild
With thirty years upon my head to have you call me child
[Chorus]
Ship of fools on a cruel sea
Ship of fools sail away from me
It was later than I thought when I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter, ship of fools
[Instrumental Break]
