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

[00:00:04] Written by：John Cale

[00:00:19] The ship of fools is coming in

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

[00:00:33] Same old stories same old thing

[00:00:39] Letting out and pulling in

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

[00:01:07] Close to tombstone

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

[00:01:14] Was when the flies were going for free

[00:01:17] You could count the hardships

[00:01:19] 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

[00:01:31] From tenessee to arizona

[00:01:36] So hold on won't be long

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

[00:01:49] Hold on sister's gone

[00:01:56] 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 for out

[00:02:28] Souls to be saved

[00:02:31] There was something in the air

[00:02:33] 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

[00:03:01] And asked for more

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

[00:03:12] Shaking hands and smiling like the clock

[00:03:18] Well we gave them all the message then

[00:03:22] That the ship of fools was in

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

[00:03:31] So hold on won't be long

[00:03:38] The call is on the line

[00:03:44] So hold on sister's gone

[00:03:51] South to give the sign
