King Neptune

Old Johnny he's seen mermaids

when he run aground

They carried him ashore

when he was shure to drown

They say old Johnnies mad

seawaters turned his head

But he alone survived

all his colleagues dead

Old Johnny's seen King Neptune

in the wildest storm

He alone survived

while sailing round the horn

He carried him to safety

while all around him died

Now Johnny tells his stories

at the old portside

Old Johnnies been at sea

60 years or more

Sailed a million miles

fucked a thousand whores

He's heard King Neptune sing

he's heard the mermaids cry

They'll take him out to sea

when it's his turn to die
