Letra de A Pirate Looks At Forty
Mother, Mother Ocean, I've heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall 'Cause you've seen it all, you've seen it allWatched the men who rode you Switch from sails to steam And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen Most of them dreams, most of them dreamsYes, I am a pirate, a few hundred years too late The cannons don't thunder, there's nothing to plunder I'm an under-forty victim of fate Arriving too late, arriving too lateI've done a bit of smuggling, I've run my share of weed I made enough money to buy Miami But I pissed it away so fast Never meant to last, it's never meant to lastWell, I have been drunk now for over two weeks I've passed out, and I rallied, and I sprung a few leaks I've gotta stop wishing, I've gotta go fishing Down to rock bottom againJust a few friends, just a few friends Just a few friends, just a few friends
