Captain Madness Songtext
morning is born, 6:24
gabriella wasn't sure if she was really sleeping

doing her chores
like watching neighbor's tv through the kitchen window
yeah

the door growled on its hinges
early wind has searching fingers
gabriella hung the black laundry dry

there's dead wood burning out here shout out
out here come beautiful fireflies
is this as far as I can get, she says, on one tank of gas
when I'm with captain madness
is it as much as I can live before I vanish in a guess
when I'm with captain madness?

on the cusp
of aquarius
captain's not with the status quo gurus

he keeps mixing life and love with quick cement
like her heart is vacant room to rent
and he stirs it with a wooden spoon

this is as far as I can get, she said, on one tank of gas
when I'm with captain madness
it's as much as I can give before I vanish in a guess
when I'm with captain madness
I'm packin' up my broom and my pointed shoes
and sail from captain madness
I must be on my way but did love to be with you
my captain madness

you are a hollow man
I am hollow too
doubt keeps dripping through these cracks
I don't know how it happened
I never cast a spell on you

far as I can get on one tank of gas
when I'm with captain madness
it's as much as I can love before I vanish in a guess
when I'm with captain madness
I'm packin' up my broom and my pointed shoes
and sail from captain madness
and I must be on my way but I did love to be with you
my captain madness
yeah
