Lament for Captain Julius

It's only a matter of time
'Til we grow up to be just like you
Worn out and dry
God's gifts don't give for too long do they?

Captain oh captain
Are you swallowing salt?
Captain oh captain
Are you swimming laps in blood?

These stories are so damned long
And most words are filler
As kids we want to change worlds with our songs
But most of us are quitters

Captain oh captain
Please prove me wrong
Captain oh captain
Hope I'm wrong
