Captain Punishment
the aquatorium’s legends speak
of a Captain Punishment
who takes with him
every recruit
his ship breaks waters uncharted
but familiar to all
the stars turn innavigable
yet constellations make image
we never see again yet never forget
and his harbours and ports?
oh dear
to his ports I've been
to his ports I've been
and you, young punk
may fret and yell all you want
but you'll too disembark
you'll too disembark.
