Hoist Up The Thing | The Longest Johns, from Cures What Ails Ya

[Music] fresh out of college with grades straight from hell i browse for a trade in which i could excel an ad for a ship in need of some manning men's sales on purpose but lacking a captain what luck says i to find such good fortune a few white lies later i ran down the pier bought me a coat and a cutlass or two jumped on the deck and i yelled at the crew post up the thing pan down the what's it once that thing's spinning somebody should stop it turn our support now i've got it trust me i'm in control [Music] i can't sing the shanties it has to be said and all of that grog just goes right to my head whale meat is gross and i miss a girl's laugh five weeks at sea even dave seems a catch post up the thing down the what's it what's that thing spinning somebody should stop it turn out that's not cool now trust me i'm in control we've hit icy waters no land to be seen the food's getting low and the beer has gone green there's murmurs of discontent under the deck if i don't act fast it could be my neck so pull up the charts and those wiggle machines i see what it says but no clue what it means just pull on some levers and yank on [Music] [Laughter] [Music] now [Music] now i've got it trust me [Music] trust me i'm in control [Music] trust me i'm in control you
