Lyrics
My arms aching, back's breaking, legs, aching neck And this whole ruddy ship is a huge creaking wreck Flown 10,000 miles with this thorn in our sides Though the wind's steady strong with no clouds in the skies The ropes creaking, ship's leaking, sails are on fire And this whole bloody ship could go up like a pyre We've got smiles on our faces, but we've seen this before No telling just now what we have in store The back-stabbing, loot-nabbing plans behind doors Running low on the rum and depleting our stores Can't tell who's on our side and who's ready to flip When we hit the next port, the whole crew could jump ship With the moods flaring, crew's glaring, cut-throats the lot With a paranoid captain always smelling a plot We've worked hard on this journey, but there's no land in sight And before it's all ended, there could be a fight My arms aching, back's breaking, legs, aching neck And this whole ruddy ship is a huge creaking wreck Flown 10,000 miles with this thorn in our sides Though the wind's steady strong with no clouds in the skies The ropes creaking, ship's leaking, sails are on fire And this whole bloody ship could go up like a pyre We've got smiles on our faces, but we've seen this before No telling just now what we have in store
