Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We are setting  sail
To the place on the map
From which no one has ever returned
Drawn by the promise of the joker and the fool
By the light of the crosses that burn
[Verse 2]
Drawn by the promise of the women and the lace
And the gold and the cotton and pearls
It's the place where they keep all the darkness you need
You sail away from the light of the world on this trip, baby
[Verse 3]
You will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow, yeah
You will pay tomorrow
[Verse 4]
Save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools
No, n-no, no
Oh, save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools
No, n-no, no
[Verse 5]
I want to run and hide
Right now
[Verse 6]
Avarice and greed
Are gonna drive you over the endless sea
They will leave you drifting in the shallows
Or drowning in the oceans of history
[Verse 7]
Traveling the world, you're in search of no good
But I'm sure you'll build your sodom like you knew you would
Usin' all the good people for your galley slaves
As your little boat struggles through the warning waves
[Verse 8]
But you don't pay
You will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow, yeah
You're gonna pay tomorrow
[Verse 9]
Save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools
No, no, no, no
Oh, save me
Save me from tomorrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools
No, n-no, no
[Verse 10]
Where's it comin' from?
Oh, where's it goin' to?
It's just a
It's just a ship of fools
[Verse 11]
Here we go
Yeah, all aboard
