Phil Ochs - The Scorpion Departs But Never Returns

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
Finger pick the verses, strum chorus

Sailors climb the tree, up the terrible tree

Where are my shipmates have they sunk beneath the sea?

I do not know much, but I know this cannot be

It isn't really, it isn't really, tell me it isn't really



Sounding bell is diving down the water green

Not a trace, not a toothbrush, not a cigarette was seen

Bubble ball is rising from a whisper or a scream

But I'm not screaming, no, I'm not screaming, tell me I'm not screaming



Captain will not say, how long we must remain

The phantom ship forever sail the sea

It's all the same



Captain, my dear Captain we're staying down so long

I have been a good man, I've done nobody wrong

Have we left our ladies for the lyrics of a song?

That I'm not singing, I'm not singing, tell me I'm not singing



The schooner ship is sliding across the kitchen sink

My son and my daughter they won't know what to think

The crew has turned to voting and the officers to drink

But I'm not drinking, no I'm not drinking, tell me I'm not drinking



Captain will not say, how long we must remain

The phantom ship forever sail the sea

It's all the same



The radio is begging them to come back to the shore

All will be forgiven, it'll be just like before

All you've ever wanted will be waiting by your door

We will forgive you, we will forgive you, tell me we will forgive you



But no one gives an answer not even one goodbye

Oh, the silence of their sinking is all that they reply

Some have chosen to decay and other chose to die

But I'm not dying, no I'm not dying, tell me I'm not dying



Captain will not say, how long we must remain

The phantom ship forever sail the sea

It's all the same
