Captain Picardy

It doesn’t really square up No, you can’t add it up Try to make it make sense But maybe I am too dense You can pass it on to me Maybe then we will see Put it inside a jar But that’s a little far Captain Picardy The captain who can’t see All the troops are gone Captain marches on When you were under my nose Unlike any of those You got under my skin I didn’t let you in Then it all came to me Though I could not see I had to fleece it out And that made you pout Captain Picardy The captain who can’t see All the troops are gone Captain marches on Captain Picardy Picardy Picardy Picardy Picardy Picardy Pi-car-dy On the road to the end I see there’s on last bend Just a minute too far I like you right where you are Take it any way you please Don’t make me get on my knees Captain can’t complain About his lack of a brain Captain Picardy The captain who can’t see All the troops are gone But Captain marches on Captain Picardy He doesn’t want to see All the troops are gone Captain marches on

Catchy enough to hum, sharp enough to question everything - especially the noise we’ve mistaken for truth. This album is the fourth album by Shadow Person, aka Will Chatham.
