Lyrics
Prelude
There’s a hush in the tavern just before he walks in
Every stool’s got a story where disaster begins
Dirty boots on the tiles, what a record he holds
Every stain tells a tale, every legend retold
Opening Verse
Before the night went south, before anyone fled
There was talk of a captain and the dread that he spread
From the bow of the bar to the end of the street
You can trace him in footprints and the stench in the heat
Intro
He rolled off the docks with a curse in his throat
Trousers already waving that brown devil afloat
Barflys recoiled as the doors swung wide
With a swagger in filth he stumbled inside
Verse 1
Never seen a captain quite so obscene
You can smell his arrival, even if you're unseen
With stains on his back and darkness below
He laughs as the groans from the crowd start to grow
Pre-Chorus
He’s the shipwreck you can’t avoid
Bringing chaos, pride destroyed
Raise a glass, but plug your nose
Before the legend truly grows
Chorus
Captain shit in pants and the brown
Stayed all night and it smells around
Wrecked the sheets and the morning too
Now everybody knows the filthy truth
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, lord, it stinks
Oh oh oh, can't escape that stink
Verse 2
He strutted in the hallway, boots all muddy
Told a tall tale, but his hands were cruddy
Raised a glass, nobody's impressed
Cuz the stains on his seat confess
Pre-Chorus
He’s got troubles in his realm
Left a mess at the helm
No, you can’t hide from the crown
When you’re Captain shit in pants in this town
Chorus
Captain shit in pants and the brown
Stayed all night and it smells around
Wrecked the sheets and the morning too
Now everybody knows the filthy truth
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, lord, it stinks
Oh oh oh, can't escape that stink
Bridge
Parading down the avenue, leaving marks on the throne
Every seat he visits gets that smell of his own
Bartender grins, tries not to gag
As Captain laughs loud, waving his dirty rag
Chorus
Captain shit in pants and the brown
Stayed all night and it smells around
Wrecked the sheets and the morning too
Now everybody knows the filthy truth
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, lord, it stinks
Oh oh oh, can't escape that stink
Outro
When the tavern locks up and the laughter dies out
No one forgets what the captain’s about
His legacy lingers, etched in the air
Captain shit in pants, foul and unfair
Outro - Extended
But old habits die harder than whiskey or gin
Still haunting the bar with a shiteating grin
Painted that toilet with legends obscene
No one forgets where his ass has been
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, it lingers on
Oh oh oh, the smell is strong
Tag
Captain shit in pants, no redemption found
Left his story and his stench all over this town
Outro - Final Verse
Now the door's got a warning, scrawled with his name
Nobody sits down, no one's taking the blame
There’s a legend in grime, they'll tell you for years
About that infamous captain and his trail of jeers
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, he's gone but the stench remains
Oh oh oh, airing out the stains
Tag - Reprise
Captain shit in pants, burned in our brains
Wherever there's shame, he's marking his claims
Extended Outro
But the town keeps on growing, the tale's passed around
Every pub has a rule, every toilet a frown
Parents warn their children, "Steer clear of that seat"
Still Captain's shadow walks every dirty street
Post-Chorus
Oh oh oh, breathe at your own risk
Oh oh oh, can't escape that whiff
Tag - Final
Captain shit in pants, a stain on the lore
He’s just a dirty legend haunting every door
