I won’t slave for beggar’s pay Likewise gold and jewels But I would slave to learn the way To sink your ship of fools. Ship of fools on a cruel sea Ship of fools sail away from me. It was later than I thought when I first believed you Now I cannot share your laughter ship of fools. Saw your first ship sink and drown From rockin’ of the boat And all that could not sink or swim Was just left there to float. I won’t leave you drifting down But whoa it makes me wild With thirty years upon my head To have you call me child. Ship of fools on a cruel sea Ship of fools sail away from me. It was later than I thought when I first believed you Now I cannot share your laughter ship of fools. The bottles stand as empty As they were filled before. Time there was and plenty But from that cup no more. Though I could not caution all I still might warn a few: Don’t lend your hand to raise no flag Atop no ship of fools. Ship of fools on a cruel sea Ship of fools sail away from me. It was later than I thought when I first believed you Now I cannot share your laughter ship of fools. It was later than I thought when I first believed you Now I cannot share your laughter ship of fools.
