My name’s Sebastian
My name’s Sebastian
I ain’t the captain
I killed the captain
Just a guy that likes to keep the ghetto blastin’
Just a guy that likes to keep the ghetto blastin’
In 1690 I blew up Weimar
In 1690 I blew up Weimar
Line 25: Line 25:
The Grecian Urn filled up with camel dung
The Grecian Urn filled up with camel dung
I got a sharp tongue
I got a sharp tongue
That I wore on the boat


All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
With the wind ever blowing my sail
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
Blowing my sail


I’m like a Buddhist
I’m like a Buddhist
Tryna do this
Tryna do this
You can hook me up with God because you’re Jewish
And you can hook me up with God because you’re Jewish
The Pharisees are tryna thwart me
If Pharisees are tryna thwart me
I need a Mary Magdalene to escort me
I need a Mary Magdalene to escort me
Such a bummer
Such a bummer
The last supper
The Last Supper
Is right around the corner from this place
Is right around the corner from this place
Get your pants on
Get your pants on
Botox your face
Botox your face
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
Blowing my sail
I'll never know
If I'm worth a damn
Or just a ham
But when I trust a feeling
Music comes to me
And I feel free
And that's all I needed to know
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
With the wind ever blowing my sail
Blowing my sail
Blowing my sail
