Jimmy Buffett - Nobody Speaks to The Captain No More слова песни
By: jimmy buffett1986For gabriel garcia marquez, allie fox and phil clarkHe was a fugitive with a pseudo nameLost his mind in a hurricaneCoconut upside his headPeople said hed be better deadcause his glory days are goneSits on the shore with his saxophoneAnd playsIn another place, in another timeHe was a soldier in his primeOn the battlefield, makin historyYoung men died for his destinyAnd their widows came each daytil he was forced to run awayFrom homeSo he bought a town, but he sold the seaClaimed a shallow victoryOn an iron ship, with a wooden crewThey hit the reef when the moon was newNow he cries himself to sleepOn a beach made of promises he meant to keepLong agoChorus:Nobody speaks to the captain no moreNobody talks about the warHey what the hell were we fighting forSuch a long, long time ago(trumpet / piccolo / saxophone instrumental)And now the monkeys and the iguanasThey listen to his songMost uncaptive audienceHe plays to all night longSo the story goes, he was dressed to killWhen he jumped from the old mahogany millAnd the jungle beasts, they were heard to wailAs the saxophone still played the scaleFor a man we never knew who looked like me and youLong agoNobody speaks to the captain no moreNo one is interested in settling old scoresHey what they hell were we fighting forSuch a long, long time agoNobody speaks to the captain no moreNo one is interested in settling old scoresHey what they hell were we fighting forSuch a long, long time ago
