[00:00:00] Ship Of Fools - John Cale

[00:00:01] Written by：John Cale

[00:00:19] The ship of fools

[00:00:23] Is coming in

[00:00:27] Take me off I've got to eat

[00:00:33] Same old stories

[00:00:36] Same old thing

[00:00:40] Letting out and pulling in

[00:00:45] Mister there's a caravan

[00:00:49] Parked out back

[00:00:52] Restless hoping for a christian rider

[00:00:58] The black book a grappling hook

[00:01:01] A hangman's noose on a burnt out tree

[00:01:05] Guess we must be getting close to tombstone

[00:01:11] The last time we had eaten

[00:01:13] Was when the flies were going for free

[00:01:17] You could count the hardships by the open doors

[00:01:23] But sandwiched in between

[00:01:26] Were the fishermen who still

[00:01:30] Wished they could sail from Tenessee to Arizona

[00:01:36] So hold on

[00:01:40] Won't be long

[00:01:43] The call is on the line

[00:01:50] Hold on

[00:01:53] Sister's gone

[00:01:57] South to give the sign

[00:02:12] We picked up dracula in Memphis

[00:02:19] It was just about the break of day

[00:02:24] And then hastily prayed

[00:02:27] For out souls to be saved

[00:02:32] There something in the air that made us kind of weary

[00:02:40] By the time we got to Swansea

[00:02:43] It was getting dark

[00:02:47] Tumble jungles bugles and the prize

[00:02:53] The tides turned west at Amerforth

[00:02:56] As if they didn't know what to do

[00:03:00] But garnant stood it's ground and asked for more

[00:03:06] All the people seemed quite glad to see us

[00:03:13] Shaking hands and smiling like the clock

[00:03:19] Well we gave them all the message then

[00:03:22] The ship of fools was in

[00:03:26] Make sure they all get home for Christmas

[00:03:31] So hold on

[00:03:35] Won't be long

[00:03:39] Call is on the line

[00:03:45] Hold on

[00:03:48] Sister's gone

[00:03:52] South to give the sign
