lyrics
Want to hear a tale about Günther Krech,
Praying on our ships in the Irish Sea
Called himself a deadly pirate how
Seemed a little light on his luck now, captain
Hush now, captain
Hunting our ships so we can’t eat
On U-B85,
To the depths, to the depths you dive
But every time, you missed the fleet
Oh captain
-pre-chorus-
At least you kept your cockles warm
Captain Krech
Then one dark mysterious night,
Shot a pale and misty light
Target acquired and set for deep
But the water came rushing in
The boat shook side to side and then
The creature unleashed its grin
She had deep green dinner plate eyes
And tentacles three feet wide
But still the crew they thought the beast
They wrestled for life and limb
And when the creatures eyes grew dim
Günther rose to tell his tale
Oh captain
-Chorus-
At least you kept your cockles warm
For there is nor call for a captain
With cold feet
And if you can’t the heat
Blame it on the kraken,
Blame it on the sea hag serpent man
Blame it on the un-dime
The kelpie, leviathan
Blame it on the sea hag serpent man
Blame it on the un-dime
The kelpie, leviathan
Waoh, Günther Krech
You spin a yarn, that’s better than truth
For of course there was no beast
No fight, no U-boat feast
Instead ajar, you left the hatch
Then the water came rushing in,
He boat shook side to side and then,
Günther rose to tell his tale
Oh captain
Recorded on the Grecian isle of Hydra, this is blissed-out psych pop with stacked falsetto harmonies and luscious arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2023
