lyrics

When the devil's on the seas with a mighty breeze
and you find it too much to wrestle
It's a dastardly deed so the last thing you need
is a visit from a phantom vessel

Lemme tell you 'bout the ship called the Flying Dutchman
Twas blessed by the monarchy, very very much man!
Disappeared off the Cape o' Good Hope, no trace
and it still remains an open case
but when you hear its sound and you see its apparition,
oh DOOM BE BOUND

When the devil's on the seas with a mighty breeze
and you find it too much to wrestle
It's a dastardly deed so the last thing you need
is a visit from a phantom vessel

Lemme tell ye bout the good ship Cophenhagen
Five masts an' all, ain't no mistakin!
Ain't a soul who had thought it were washed away
Til they found its wreckage upon Cape Town Bay
Seamen saw its apparition off the coast of France
they shat their pants

Throughout the howling winds of time
Have men of the sea been swamped with fear,
violent visions, premonitions, rapscallions of the underworld
Here it is, the flying Dutchman, in yer face goddamit!

When the devil's on the seas with a mighty breeze
and you find it too much to wrestle
It's a dastardly deed so the last thing you need
is a visit from a phantom vessel
When the devil's on the seas with a mighty breeze
and you find it too much to wrestle
It's a dastardly deed so the last thing you need
is a visit from a phantom ... vessel

Great music. The t-shirt didn't meet my expectation though :( The print is way smaller and abstract than showed here on the image. Gnseblmchen
