The Ghost Of Errol Flynn

[Verse 1]
If some night you get that strange desire
That you might contract because your soul's on fire
Let me tell you mister since you asked
'Bout a character
Right out of your recent past

[Pre-Chorus]
And he never could be defeated
And he never not once retreated
Never in a million years
Never in a million years

[Chorus]
Everybody wished they'd been
Just a little bit like Errol Flynn
When you're trying to commit some sin
Take a look my friend
That's the ghost of Errol Flynn

[Verse 2]
Someone said that it was mankind's fate
To be left waiting at the starting gate
That's when Errol's sure to reappear
To remind us all
There's nothing in the world to fear

[Pre-Chorus]
And they never could analyze him
And they never could categorize him
Never in a million years
Never in a million years

[Chorus]
Everybody wished they'd been
Just a little bit like Errol Flynn
When you're trying to commit some sin
Take a look my friend
That's the ghost of Errol Flynn

[Bridge]
And since we're on the subject
There's a lesson to be learned
Don't put out the fire
Just because you might get burned

[Pre-Chorus]
Just remember old you know who
There was nothing he could not do
Nothing in the stratosphere
Nothing in a million years

[Chorus]
Everybody wished they'd been
Just a little bit like Errol Flynn
When you're trying to commit some sin
Take a look my friend
That's the ghost of Errol Flynn

[Outro]
That pirate with the [?] grin
That's the ghost of Errol Flynn
That's the ghost of Errol Flynn
