[Verse 1]
A funeral moves. Under the cloak of night
Captain Clegg and his smuggling pirates ride
With contraband of the finest Brandy and Wine
Hidden inside a macabre coffin disguise
[Verse 2]
A tombstone reads "Captain Clegg, R.I.P."
Yet still he sails across the Phantom Seas
Such a holy man for all of you to see
The Village Vicar: - His secret Identity
[Chorus]
Frightened people, fear the evil
In their leader - Captain Clegg
[Verse 3]
The Kings Revenue Men - learn of Clegg's illicit deeds
From a local traitor - Now a corpse who no longer speaks
If you cross his path - He'll slice off both your ears
They'll have your tongue cut out, and reduce your life to tears
[Chorus 2]
Perish all of you - Who betray me
Your ghostly leader - Captain Clegg
A few words from Collier....
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
He wore the mask of the skeletal creature of night
His oath was terror and "Blood!" his battle cry
He was a wanted man, who escaped the Hangman's noose
The Parish leader - His pirate clergy on the loose
[Chorus 3]
He sailed the Phantom Seas, catered for community needs
The Village Master - Captain Clegg
[Chorus 4]
He was a ghost rider - A phantom night creature
Evil leader: - Captain Clegg. R.I.P
