Captain Courageous (On Disko Island)

[Verse 1]
Captain Courageous
Looking outrageous in his finery
Fingers his shotgun
Knowing the outcome isn't binary
Death cannot daunt him
Ghosts cannot haunt him
Nobody wants him, because he's

[Verse 2]
Captain Courageous
Isn't contagious but he's quarantined
Set him in aspic
Now that the politics are Florentine
Blows cannot strike him
Soundmen don't mic him
Nobody's like him, because he's

[Chorus]
Captain Courageous, he'll never age (Captain Courageous)
But we can't turn the page on
Captain Courageous (Captain Courageous)

[Verse 3]
Captain Courageous
Doesn't engage us as he struts the stage
Captain Colossal
Hе's just the fossil of a bygone age
Dеath don't await him
Critics don't rate him
Nobody hates him, because he's

[Chorus]
Captain Courageous, he'll never age (Captain Courageous)
But we can't turn the page on
Captain Courageous (Captain Courageous)

[Bridge]
Now he stands like a statue with one arm in the air
And it's Queens and it's Brooklyn and his armies are there
And as he salutes, a bird messes the nest of his hair
Poor Captain!
His leather's imperial; disease's venereal

[Verse 1]
Death cannot daunt him
Ghosts cannot haunt him
Nobody wants him, he's only

[Chorus]
Captain Courageous, he'll never age (Captain Courageous)
But we can't turn the page on
Captain Courageous (Captain Courageous)
Captain Courageous, Captain Courageous
Captain Courageous
