Sky is overcast
Old man of the sails
Summoning to mass
Terns upon the rails
By some mystic means
Of changing gulls to kings
Old man had a way
So the seagulls sang
Our hoard has been abducted by a common draft (old craft of mine)
And left us on a raft (goodbye, ye kings in the sky)
Our stand has been abandoned by the rubes we crossed (ships in the sky)
And left us at a loss (ye old craft of mine)
Our vessel has been boarded by a common craft (ships in the sky)
And left us on a raft (so long, ye old craft of mine)
Our channels are abandoned and the craft is lost (ships in the sky)
Left with an albatross
Cursed flock descending
Terns upon the rails
Charmed by instruments and charts
Compasses and scales
ย
Din is overwhelming
Screaming mob will find
So as they have made us deaf
The old man made them blind
ย
By some scheme or sorcery
The ship had taken flight
Capsized by the moon and strewn
Its wreckage through the night
ย
See gulls all the same
Searching for the rails
Summoning in vain
Old man of the sails
Still they dive and sing
Of becoming kings
Old man now they say
Lives far below the waves
Our hoard has been abducted by a common draft (old craft of mine)
And left us on a raft (goodbye, ye kings in the sky)
Our stand has been abandoned by the rubes we crossed (ships in the sky)
And left us at a loss (ye old craft of mine)
Our vessel has been boarded by a common craft (ships in the sky)
And left us on a raft (so long, ye old craft of mine)
Our channels are abandoned and the craft is lost (ships in the sky)
Left with an albatross
ย
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
So long, ye old craft of mine
Goodbye, ye kings in the sky
