Sixteen Jolly Ravers
16 fishermen raving out on the town on E
16 peacocks leave their nest and go flying into mystery
they try to cut the spainish look but they look so untidy
dont eat too much you'll never get enough when you're flying into mystery
flyin into mystery when you should be out seafarin
run out the jib rig the boom step back reality
when their ship is on the ocean their nights are so empty
they're weary of the smelly fish and the wash of the salty sea
16 jolly ravers each one carrying his own caul
they believe it will keep death away when they face the angry squall
why face the angry squall when you could go go-go dancin
run out the jib rig the boom step back reality
to the 16 jolly ravers those girls look so fancy
Songtexteyou could ate your fry off the back of her neck if you want some more say please
when fishermen are feeling good they feel it musically
they go down singing shanties to the dancefloor all at sea
to the dancefloor all at sea 16 jolly ravers
run out the jib rig the boom step back reality
flyin in to mystery when you should be out seafarin
run out the jib rig the boom step back reality
