Songs of the Sea

Songs of the Sea

As the sea roars and the cold ice thaws, the echo of Sally McNeill starts to sing and nothing is what it seems,
As the waves climb higher and higher, the sea monsters rise,
Every nightmare,
Every ripple,
Turning into a dream,

I hear her sing, as haunting as it sounds,
She sings out, no filthy pirates allowed!
Enchanted spirits crawl the ocean,
Sally McNeill, the voice of a deadly potion!

Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave!
Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave!

She strangles her prey, kills with a stake, disguised in turquoise blue like a fairytale mermaid!
From the depths of hell, to a magical spell, she's coming for the men with an eyepatch and a wooden leg,
Swirling around the sea, whipping up a storm, searching for skull and cross bones, singing her deadly tone.
The sea that time has forgot, whoever sails these seas, live they will not!

Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave!
Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave!

Dare to venture out in the sea at night, her voice will blow with all her might,
She will shudder you to your knees, you'll be begging 'oh not me, PLEASE!'
But the souls she collects, the dead only forget and in time when morning comes, when the sun shines,
Here lays an empty deck!
Not a sound to be heard,
Only the singing birds...

Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave!
Oh Sally McNeill,
Oh Sally McNeill,
She bellows out her tune,
Nobody gets to leave,
Nobody gets to leave...
