Lyrics Levellers – Captain’s Courageous

Kick the sheets off, get out of bed
Good morning, deja vu
Is this the best thing in my head
Good morning, now what to do

I could run away with captain’s courageous
I could live on fruit in Montego Bay
I could run a bar in a war torn front line
I could do it all but just not today

Good morning TV, now what’s been said
Around the world while I’m in bed
Nothing changes ’cause we’re still being fed
On little white lies and stale white bread
Look at my day, what’s my next appointment
Dinner in hell, what a disappointment

I could run away with captain’s courageous
I could live on fruit in Montego Bay
I could run a bar in a war torn front line
I could do it all but just not today

Another social misery
For four hours every day
I live for they and they live for me
For hours and hours every day

I could run away with captain’s courageous
I could live on fruit in Montego Bay
I could run a bar in a war torn front line
I could do it all but just not today

I could free my mind become a rich man’s guru
I could take the time just to feed the world
