Cathedral - Captain Clegg lyrics

A funeral moves. Under the cloak of night Captain Clegg and his smuggling pirates ride With contraband of the finest Brandy and Wine Hidden inside a macabre coffin disguise A tombstone reads "Captain Clegg, R.I.P." Yet still he sails across the Phantom Seas Such a holy man for all of you to see The Village Vicar: - His secret Identity Frightened people, fear the evil in their leader - Captain Clegg The Kings Revenue Men - learn of Clegg's illicit deeds From a local trader - Now a corpse who no longer speaks If you cross his path - He'll slice off both your ears Have your tongue cut out, and reduce your life to tears Perish all of you - Who betray me Your ghostly leader - Captain Clegg A few words from Collier.... He wore the mask of the skeletal creature of night His oath was terror and "Blood!" his battle cry He was a wanted man, who escaped the Hangman's noose The Parish leader - His pirate clergy in the loose He sailed the Phantom Seas, catered for community needs The Village Master - Captain Clegg He was a ghost rider - Phantom night creature Evil leader: - Captain Clegg. R.I.P.
