Josh Roehl - Captain Josh's Lament

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1741360
Verse 1
I'm Captain Josh, the captain of the JR5
A ship that I have run for over five years
I've faced many dangers, but I'm still alive
I've had to face a lot of fears

Pre-Chorus
I've got a crew that is helpful to me
Jack, Mary, John and Steven, among others
We go back a very long time
Mary's like a sister, and Steven's like a brother

Chorus
I've been through everything that you can imagine
Like the time a group of pirates hijacked our ship
I had to fight them off, as you can imagine
Those pirates didn't know what they would get

Verse 2
They were known as the Rum Rumblers, they were pirates of the sea
They collected quarters, but we didn't have any
Jack tried to compromise and gave them five pennies
But that wasn't enough, as the Rum Rumblers got angry

Pre-Chorus
One of them, named Bubbles, brought out his sword
I was getting nervous as he threatened us more
Then I found a quarter floating in the open sea
I have it to Bubbles, and now we were free

Chorus
I've been through everything that you can imagine
Like the time a group of pirates hijacked our ship
I had to fight them off, as you can imagine
Those pirates didn't know what they would get

Bridge
It's a very adventurous life
Being the captain of the JR5
I still remember the time that I travelled to Venice
And dreamed about going on a date with Elaine Benes

Outro
I know that she's a fictional character
But I wish I could go out with her on a date
Maybe she'd be impressed that I'm the captain of a ship
Or maybe she'd be more attracted to a first mate
