Pirates:
-Is this a man or just flotsam and jetsam
lost and adrift in the sea?
-Not someone worth very much
in the way of ransom.
-Let's throw him back till the sharks come and get some.
-Just leave the carving to me.

Luisa:
First clean him up, something tells me he might be handsome.
How does a man come to be in the churning ocean?
His is a tale I really would like to hear.

I once lived a normal average life
acting like a normal average wife
'til I cut my husband's throat
with a kitchen knife.

And then it was off to the deep blue sea,
looking for a sailor who was just like me.
A woman and a man in a one man boat...
Now it's only me.

Sailing, sailing,
on the bounding main,
singing this refrain:
All is fair in love and war.
Steal a little, then you steal some more.
Don't get greedy 'cause I have my ways of keeping score.

I make all my vessels yar and trim.
I take all my lovers tall and slim.
First I size the mizzen mast.

Pirates:
Then she measures him.

Luisa:
And if either once is a little short,
then neither one makes it into port.

Pirates:
And she spars the spanker sail
as a last resort.

Luisa:
Sailing, sailing,
half way 'round the world
with our sheets unfurled.
One false step can seem so true.
Lie to me, and then I'll lie to you.
When you're lying just remember who you're lying to.

Edmond:
I once made a wish on a star above,
closed my eyes and then fell in love.
For leagues and leagues I've travelled,
trying to get home.

A sea of years rolling over me,
still I always see her face,
like a star fixed in the heavens,
like hope and full of grace.

Luisa:
I once met a man who I thought was good.
Treated him like a woman should.
For leagues and leagues we travelled
fast and far from home.

I close my eyes and I see him still.
Then I open them a bit.
Like a star fixed in the heavens...
He was always full of shit.

Sailing, sailing,
half way 'round the world
with our sheets unfurled.
One false step can seem so true.
Lie to me, and then I'll lie to you.
When you're lying just remember who you're lying to.

One false step can seem so true.
Lie to me, and then I'll lie to you.
When you're lying just remember who you're lying to.
Who you're lying to.
Who you're lying to.
