Lyrics
Ship Of Fools
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.
When the rats are bailing out
And you are just signing on
Then you turned and walked away
There is no love lost here, my friend
But you have made a great mistake
You ate the hook, the sink and bait
Now you can't get out
It's much too late
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
And on and on and on
But I can be merciless for sure
And you'll sail for many moons
I can't believe you lost your mind
I'll watch you falling down, again
You have been living in a dream
And I can hear the same old theme
But nothing's ever what it seems
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
And on and on and on
The truth is always hard to face
Especially when you are in that place,
Like the ship of fools
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
And on and on and on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
The ship of fools keep sailing on
And on and on and on
