Amadan - The McBeal Mutiny lyrics

Once upon a time, in 1669 They christened her the HMS McBeal A twelve gun privateer For the whisky, rum, and beer With both Englishmen and Irish at her wheel She was owned by John McGee, Her captain while at sea An Englishman and a worthless c*nt to boot The first mate was a drunk Always pa**ed out in his bunk Where he dreamed of who*es and pillaging their loot Chorus: Well I know that should I go to that vessel down below That the crew would still lie scattered on her decks The captain would still stand With the cutla** in his hand And the Union Jack still tied around his neck The Patties were opressed By an englishman who dressed In the colors of His Majesty, the King A conscripted Irish crew Wore an anti-crown tattoo, And among them, cries of mutany would ring Til alas, one fateful night Every Englishman in sight was butchered as he sat down to his tea A red sky in the morning Should have made McGee take warning And that deck was red as any sky could be Chorus Well I know that should I go to that vessel down below That the crew would still lie scattered on her decks The captain would still stand With the cutla** in his hand And the Union Jack still tied around his neck The captain, left for last Was strung up from the mast Where he hung aloft for all the world to see McGee's red, white and blue Took his life and all he knew And his swords hung still, useless as could be The ending of this song is taking too damn long, I think this song is coming to a head I'm sure they all got drunk, And hit a rock and sunk That's all there is, so now f** off to bed. Chorus Well I know that should I go to that vessel down below That the crew would still lie scattered on her decks The captain would still stand With the cutla** in his hand And the Union Jack still tied around his neck I know that should I go to that vessel down below That the crew would still lie scattered on her decks The captain would still stand With the cutla** in his hand And the Union Jack still tied around his neck
