lyrics

7. Damn your eyes
My name's Bligh
I'm a survivor
I don't see many hands
here going up but
I'll stick to my guns
True, I've no solid proof
Neither do you
As for the admiralty
diidling one another
Pull up the covers
and send my morning paper

to the morgue
You're all mad as hatters
But we're just the captain and crew

in a small town
neare the rear of the daily papers
Some spring? Fall? Winter?
Notsummer
An item appeared:
Sailors raid a local gin and beer joint
The cook threw a fit
Tongued a duchess
Where, I'm not sure

Nobody can come aboard
Nobody
Nobody can go ashore
Nobody

Ah, but most dames are crazy
And anyway
We're all just bent on destruction
This is my own
I Don't see many heads here
Bowed low but
I'll stick to my guns

Wunderbar! 松山市, Japan

"Steam powered fantasia with a touch of the wild, wild west and one of a kind mechanical instruments. If Melies had been a songwriter instead of film director, his music would probably have sounded something like this."
