BIG BLACK BOAT
We came marching through the wasteland
Never going home
By the time we reached the shoreline
We were bags of bones
But the gods they showed no mercy
Flooding us with tears
Under bad moon we got ambushed
By the sirens’ cheer
Hi-Ho
Climb aboard
Climb aboard
The big black boat
So we set out for the island
Where ancient dragons roam
Damn, we paid a bloody toll
They swallowed us whole
They don’t chew on their food
They got strong gastric juice
It would decompose you too
Hi-Ho
Climb aboard
Climb aboard
The big black boat
We sailed into the marshlands
To find the mystic tree
All hail the mighty giant
Between river and sea
Then we built ourselves a tower
Across the mangrove trunk
It withered like a flower
Forever we are stuck
We are stuck
We are stuck
On the big black boat
All aboard
All aboard
All aboard the big black boat
Put the moon in a spoon and let the ghost go
