Riding With The Captain

from backstage stories by Letter Seventeen

lyrics

(So let me get this straight…)
There's a nun, a dwarf
And a treasure map
And you don't want to know where the map is at
The captain guides the ship
Across the sea
In search of some pirate booty

I've signed on
To be the first mate
And to try to keep this story straight
I'm still a bit confused
About the nun
But I'll do
What has to be done


Okay, I guess I'll do what you say
As long as I get paid


I swab the deck
Then sleep below
Until I'm called on
To be part of the show
I'll follow the dwarf and the nun
And we'll do
What has to be done


Okay, I guess I'll do what you say
As long as I get paid
Oh, and by the way
How exactly will I be paid?
What a long, strange trip
What a strange, strange ship

about

Letter Seventeen Norcross

Whimsical indie pop from a one-man band. Except when other people help. Which is quite often. So it's not like a one-man band at all.
Oh. And there are songs about donkeys.
