Æther Shanties

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
