Lyrics
Captain Bligh
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The whaler goes on out to sea
The bell tolls from the belfry
Captain Bligh harpoon in hand
cat-o-ninetails every man
Captain Bligh meets his end
Eaten up by revenge
Eaten up full of hate
Grisily is his fate
Moral given never learnt
If you hate you'll be burnt
Every man on board is damned
Each one knows it every hand
No man here forgets his past
When Captain Bligh is dead at last
