Mother, mother ocean, well I have heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall 'Cause you've seen it all, you've seen it all Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam And in your belly you hold the treasures that few have ever seen Most of 'em dreams, most of 'em dreams Yes I am a pirate, a few hundred years too late The cannons don't thunder, there's nothing to plunder I'm an under-forty victim of fate Arriving too late, arriving too late I've done a bit of smuggling, I've run my share of weed And I've made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast It's never meant to last, it's never meant to last And I have been drunk now for over two weeks I've passed out and I've rallied and I've sprung a few leaks But I got stop wishing, got to go fishing Down to rock bottom again With just a few friends, just a few friends With just a few friends, just a few friends
