William Elliott Whitmore – Mutiny lyrics

[Verse]
Well it's a goddamn shame what's going down
How we got to this I do not know
There's a sick, sick wind that is blowin' 'round
And the captain's got to go

About you or me, he does not give a damn
What a low-down, dirty snake
With his mind on his money and his money on his mind
Well something's got to break

[Chorus]
Like when the hounds start howling (when the hounds start howling)
And when there's fiends about (when there's fiends about)
I will stand up and shout
"I declare mutiny on this ship"

[Verse]
Well the captain's been drinking below the deck
And this vessel's headed way off course
I want to wrap my hands around his crooked neck
And throw him overboard

Send him to his Lord
Send him to his Lord

[Bridge]
Well I don't want to be saved
No, I just want to be free
And take back what these old Devils have taken from me
No, I don't want to be saved
Oh I just want to be free
And take back what these old devils have taken from me

[Chorus]
Like when the hounds start howling (when the hounds start howling)
And when there's fiends about (when there's fiends about)
I will stand up and shout
"I declare mutiny on this ship"
I said, "I declare mutiny on this ship"

[Verse]
Well the captain's been drinking below the deck
And this vessel's headed way off course
I want to wrap my hands around his crooked neck
And throw him overboard

Send him to his Lord
Send him to his Lord

I want to send him to back to where he came
Not to mercy, no, but to burn in flames

[Outro]
I said, he don't need no water (he don't need no water)
Well let the motherfucker burn (let the motherfucker burn)
I said, he don't need no water (he don't need no water)
Well let the motherfucker burn (let the motherfucker burn)

Well, burn motherfucker, burn
Well, burn motherfucker, burn
