Girl Named Captain

Robert Pollard


I've fallen blind 
I've crossed the line 
Crawling back to you now

Open arms are teasing 
Back for a second squeezing 
I'm crawling back to you now

When will we see good weather? 
I'm thinking not quite soon 
She comes in white 
She brings the night 
"Raise the dead!"

A girl named Captain said 
I've fallen blind 
such luck is mine

And the noble submarines 
Of the waiting line 
Will accept no bummerings 
From the robot kind

"But now we will break some bread" 
A girl named Captain said 
I'm not in your dreams 
Get out of mine
