Mother Nature and Neptune Are Looking For Some Cash

THAT’S NOT A GOOD TUNE NEPTUNE
 
Certainly we all knew about that boat
Christened, but can she float?
Sure we knew about that ship
But no one knew how quickly the main sail would rip

Yes we knew the danger but also the thrill
And allow old Neptune to do that which he will
We were private pirates of whom know one should know
Sailing curls that curried the favor of Neptune’s blow

But sailors naught, naught ought be we
Trying to stay adrift in a bloody sea 
Yet the storm grows in wind and in strength
And this is one unprepared crew, not for rain nor its length

Another mile or two is where they found Fred
He was injected with an overdose of the  sea and is decidedly dead
As for me and the other four we all beat the sea 
That day Neptune was our connection and  Mother Nature sold dope to me
