Vinny Marchi - Captain Platonic Lyrics

The only reason that men save women and children first
Like when a ship sinks
Is so that they can hang back and kiss each other
Nuh Uhh
The Cap goes down with the ship they say
(The Cap goes down with the ship they say)
The only way he's going down today
(The only way he's going down today)
And as the water came rushing through
(And as the water came rushing through)
He bid his wife a last adieu
And never ever did touch his crew
So temper your rumor
You shan't listen to her
The Cap going way down's
Got one thing to say now
Nuh uh! No! Stop! That's not true
Here comes Captain Platonic
And if he could get some he still wouldn't want it no
Here comes Captain Platonic
And he'll never let them say he's in the closet no
But rumor spread that his love had strayed
(Rumor spread that his love had strayed)
To his crew his affection paid
(To his crew his affection paid)
Never was there a larger lie
(But never was there a larger lie)
And with his rock solid alibi
So shall we all let this gossip die
He stayed on his vessel
His mates reminisce
He started to tremble
And gave them a ki...hm mm...beer
Promise me that you'll survive
No matter what happens
Here comes Captain Platonic
And if he could get some he still wouldn't want it no
Here comes Captain Platonic
And he'll never let them say he's in the closet no
Oooooooo he still wouldn't want it no
Oooooooo he still wouldn't want it no
He stayed on his vessel
His mates reminisce
He started to tremble
And gave them a ki...
