Let the proceedings begin
What's wrong with your mind?
Do you think that i've gone blind?
Like a thief that's right
Run for your life
What's wrong with your mind?
Well please don't act surprised
everything I own has gone up in smoke
No ones guilty of that crime
Why of course I'll speak your honour
Led like a lamb to slaughter
The wolf was sharpening its teeth on the bones of my grandmother
Why 'course i kept my faith blind
she was speaking honour in her words
Well I guess I've learned
What's wrong with your mind?
Do you think there's a case to fight?
I'm here to testify
I'm sorry girl we know that's a lie
Jury's been out all night
Why of course I'll speak your honour
Led like a lamb to slaughter
The wolf was sharpening its teeth on the bones of my grandmother
Why 'course i kept my faith blind
She was speaking honour in her words
Well I guess I've learned
Your heart don't come first
Order Order
Give the judge his verse
Cast out this pale white demon
Its been crawling on the celling
It's a harlot, a charlatan
a great white shark you crown of thorns
we know exactly what you done
bit your lip and run
you sent no help for us no
This ship went down!
You let a good man drown
Is it a case of the bends?
messing with your head
what's wrong with your mind?
What's wrong with your mind?
like a thief that's right
Run for your life
What's wrong with your mind? x5
(Hope you enjoy the view from your padded room where no one ever visits you or thinks about you anymore!)

Bear in mind my heart is on the line
Yeah I hold my breath
are you really that surprised
Don’t believe the hype till
We read it in the headlines
Don’t you waste no bets on me
I'm singing some dying wish
for a man long dead and buried
Tell me what i want to hear
Yeah I'll sing for you my dear
Tell me where you want to go
I will drive you back home
Feed me all your tricks and wicked lies
Yeah i won’t stray from your side
Tell me what i want to hear
Tell me what I want to hear
Oh my girl is beautiful so it seems
You're all bent on leaving tearing at the seams
too preoccupied in this good in life to see
This tiger's changed her stripes no longer for me
Don’t you waste no bets on me
I'm singing some dying wish
for a man long dead and buried
Tell me what I want to hear
Yeah I'll sing for you my dear
Tell me where you want to go
I will drive you back home
Feed me all your tricks and wicked lies
Yeah, i won’t stray from your side
Tell me what i want to hear
Tell me what I want to hear
Don’t you waste no bets on me
Don’t you waste no bets on me
Oh I fall in love too easily
I can’t pin down what sways me
But heed these words cause I know all too well
Women are sent from heaven to put you through hell

Pirates Rule
03:21

Hit the deck with a Yo Ho Ho
Let us sail this ship called home
We’ll own the seven seas
But there's a code round here you see
Listen carefully
Got a problem, I'm the Captain, talk to me
See if we agree, But if we don’t
Off this plank you go
To the bottom all swallowed whole
in the belly of a beast
That swims this ocean deep
This is pirates rule
The same from back in school
We don’t make them
We just make sure you don’t break them
Yo Ho Ho
We were once just poor young sailors
Out of money out of favours
Have you ever seen real treasure
It's worth the dangerous living I swear
We are all self made men
For our crimes we were condemned
If you want to sail with us
Get up early in the morning
This is pirates rule
The same from back in school
We don’t make them
We just make sure you don’t break them
Yo Ho Ho
Hit the deck with a Yo Ho Ho
Let us sail on this ship called home
We’ll sail the seven seas
But theres a code round here you see
Listen carefully
Got a problem, I'm the Captain, talk to me
See if we agree, But if we don’t
YAAARRRR HAAARR HARRR!
