   He was a fugitive with a pseudo name
  Lost his mind in a hurricane
  Coconut upside his head
  People said he'd be better dead
  Cause his glory days are gone
  Sits on the shore with his saxophone
  and plays
  
  In another place, in another time
  He was a soldier in his prime
  On the battlefield, makin' history
  Young men died for his destiny
  And their widows came each day
  Till he was forced to run away
  From home
  
  So he bought a town, but he sold the sea
  Claimed a shallow victory
  On an iron ship, with a wooden crew
  They hit the reef when the moon was new
  Now he cries himself to sleep
  On a beach made of promises he meant to keep
  Long ago
  
  Nobody Speaks To The Captain No More
  Nobody talks about the war
  Hey what the hell were we fighting for
  Such a long long time ago
  
  And now the monkeys and the iguanas
  They listen to his song
  A most uncaptive audience
  He plays to all night long
  
  So the story goes, he was dressed to kill
  When he jumped from the old mahogany mill
  And the jungle beasts, they were heard to wail
  As the saxophone still played the scale
  For a man they never know who looked like me and you
  Long ago
  
  Nobody Speaks To The Captain No More
  No one is interested in settling old scores
  Hey what the hell were we fighting for
  Such a long, long time ago
  
  Nobody Speaks to The Captain No More
  No one is interested in settling old scores
  Hey what the hell were we fighting for
  Such a long time ago.
