The Captain is one of my favourite songs ever. I love how the singer calls to the music, but the music is sleepy at first and slow to respond but the singer keeps going and so do the instruments until they finally wake and burst into the tingley moment they were building towards. Really lovely the story to climax and finish. I hope you will play it one day in Wellington.
I thought I'd take a stab at the words since I can't find them anywhere online, I'm sure they're not perfect so fix any mistakes you find if you'd like Sailors running for the sea We'll find our feet Down under the stream and we go Straight back in the hole Pirates are getting in for free and feed the dreams The love of their machines It's so real and with a wooden heart of steel Hey dude, Don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart I will not let you down again And now you're lost upon a friendly floor When no one seems to care no more If you've lost all hope that you're ever gonna cope with the waves crashing in your brain The Captain is waiting for the birds find our words ( I'm completely lost on what he says here feel free to help) Hey dude, Don't be so frightened of the open sea I will not let you drown again Hey dude, Don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart I will not let you down again
+Hime KittyChan That's amazing. I wrote on their Facebook wall and they said they will be sending the lyrics to me by mail. That was a time ago, and I haven't received them yet. I'm lost at the same part as you, it's difficult understand. Great job. I'll write them again.
+Hime KittyChan Hi! I know this is an old comment, but I've just been working on your lyrics. Here's your version with some tweaks: Sailors running for the sea We’ll find our feet Down another stream We go straight back in the hull Pirates are getting in for free And fever dreams The love of their machines that's so real With a wooden heart of steel Hey dude, Don’t be so frightened of your bleeding heart I would not let you die again And now you’re washed up on a friendly floor/ shore Where no one seems to care no more If you’ve lost all hope That you’re ever gonna cope with the waves crashing in your brain The captain is waiting for the birds We’ll find our lost beneath the two of us Two halves, of never (??? I can't figure this part out either) Hey dude, Don’t be so frightened of the open sea I would not let you drown again Hey dude, Don’t be so frightened of your bleeding heart I would not let you die again.
Thanks for having a go, especially with the backing vocals at around 2:30- didn't even think about those. I wonder if the songwriters are reading this thread and laughing...? Ha.
Got these from a Brazilian lyrics page and they seem pretty accurate to me: Sailors running for the sea We'll find our feet down another stream we go Straight back in the hull Pirates are getting in for free And feed the dreams, the love of their machines It's so real And with a wooden heart of steel Hey dude, don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart I would not let you die again And now you're washed up on a friendly shore Where no one seems to care no more If you've lost all hope that you're ever gonna cope With the waves crashing in your brain The captain is waiting for the birds We'll find our lost in what leads the two of us two halves We'll never fasten the rope Hey dude, don't be so frightened of the open sea I would not let you drown again Hey dude, don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart I would not let you die again
One of my favourite songs. Ever.

What a fantastic, much underrated band this is.
They have so many excellent songs... NZ should be proud!
very
the bassist is my nephew . . . so proud.
TheMonkeesRock this is not an incredibly outlandish claim
I heard this song for the first time yesterday on The Almighty Johnsons. I love this song!!
Would have never discovered this song if not "What we do in the shadows" :)
Omg, Why have I only found this masterpiece now?
My Twin Jonathan Brugh dancing to this song in the Movie what we do in the shadows Such A Great Song And Music Video //: )
Best. Video. Ever.

Sailors running for the sea
We'll find our feet
Down under the stream
and we go
Straight back in the hole
Pirates are getting in for free
and feed the dreams
The love of their machines
It's so real
and with a wooden heart of steel
Hey dude,
Don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart
I will not let you down again
And now you're lost upon a friendly floor
When no one seems to care no more
If you've lost all hope
that you're ever gonna cope with the waves
crashing in your brain
The Captain is waiting for the birds find our words ( I'm completely lost on what he says here feel free to help)
Hey dude,
Don't be so frightened of the open sea
I will not let you drown again
Hey dude,
Don't be so frightened of your bleeding heart
I will not let you down again

We’ll find our feet

We go straight back in the hull
Pirates are getting in for free
And fever dreams
The love of their machines that's so real
With a wooden heart of steel
Hey dude,
Don’t be so frightened of your bleeding heart
I would not let you die again
And now you’re washed up on a friendly floor/ shore
Where no one seems to care no more
If you’ve lost all hope
That you’re ever gonna cope with the waves crashing in your brain
The captain is waiting for the birds
We’ll find our lost beneath the two of us
Two halves, of never (??? I can't figure this part out either)
Hey dude,
Don’t be so frightened of the open sea
I would not let you drown again
Hey dude,
Don’t be so frightened of your bleeding heart
I would not let you die again.
Obrigado!

Lo que hacemos en la oscuridad.
Sounds like something from the 80's.
Eu tava chapadão e ouvi essa musica 😂😂😂
Funny thing but Bright Gray is utterly wonderful and so is the dancing cars track but can't get enthusiastic about anything else from the Phoenix F.
Hey does anyone have lyrics for the song?

Dancing Cars is "HITCHCOCK"

Very Gorillaz Plastic Beach.
Agreed.
11 years later but yes, it could be easily a bonus track of the album. Fits so well
