(Verse)
Gentlemen,the situations serious
Gentlemen, the captain is delirious
Swinging from the Main raised by his neck
Going for all hands to clear the deck
Seems like nothing he can do is gonna save this wreck
(Pre-chorus)
We’re going down down down
We’re going down down down down down
(Chorus)
Captain jones was always drunk
Lost his mind falling out of his bunk
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
Captain jones we’re in distress
You’re the one who got us in this mess
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
(Verse)
Gentlemen, the situations getting worse
Gentlemen, the women and the children first
The time has come to abandon ship
I’d like to thank you all for the lovely trip
Hope you try and keep a still —?
(Pre-chorus)
We’re going down down down
We’re going down down down down down
(Chorus)
Captain jones was always strong
Lost his mind falling out of his bunk
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
Captain jones we’re in distress
You’re the one who got us in this mess
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
Captain jones was always drunk
Lost his mind falling out of his bunk
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
Captain jones we’re in distress
You’re the one that got us in this mess
Captain jones you gotta walk the plank goodbye
