Angry Ghosts
It didn't happen as they had planned it to
The moon became reef then port then grave
Clamour onto your boats
No one would have picked him insane
But he was a heretic
Behind those lips there lived a snake
And all the angry ghosts sing songs of wind and waves
So you sent the soldiers all to their graves
Searching for water
You thought that they would die in the sun
You sent your men to kill everyone
But caught in the islands' embrace
There's no thrill, there's no chase
Now lets cross the channel to Wiebbe Hayes
He's sipping water, hears of your slaughter
Now your plucking birds in their coral base
While all your mutineers are loosing the race back to the boat
And all the angry ghosts sing songs of wind and waves
Jeronimus you lied to us
You clench your fists, they're gone
The wind and waves forget your names
They just know you as bones
The moon became reef then port then grave
Clamour onto your boats
No one would have picked him insane
But he was a heretic
Behind those lips there lived a snake
And all the angry ghosts sing songs of wind and waves
So you sent the soldiers all to their graves
Searching for water
You thought that they would die in the sun
You sent your men to kill everyone
But caught in the islands' embrace
There's no thrill, there's no chase
Now lets cross the channel to Wiebbe Hayes
He's sipping water, hears of your slaughter
Now your plucking birds in their coral base
While all your mutineers are loosing the race back to the boat
And all the angry ghosts sing songs of wind and waves
Jeronimus you lied to us
You clench your fists, they're gone
The wind and waves forget your names
They just know you as bones
