“Captain”
captain
who strikes the deck with fear
captain
who knows when storms come near
captain
who gazes over his troops that drink beer
captain
who looks to the moon for a seer
captain
who knows when to shift the gears
captain
who looks over the town with a peer
captain oh captain
see with a sneer
captain
who holds the memories dear
captain
who wipes away the fallen tears
captain
who feels when someone’s feeling mere
captain
who gives his crew some cheer
captain oh captain
look in the mirror
