lyrics

The Admiral Jan Hauenstein

(Em) (Cj7) (D) (Em) (B7) (E) (hold)
The (Em)admiral sails on the (Am)oceans,
The (Fj7)admiral sails on the (Em7)Seven High Seas,
He (Cj7)knows neither skills nor (D)positive emotions,
And he (Em) misinterprets nigh (B7)all that he (Em)sees. (Cj7) (D) (Em)

The admiral knows what (Am)women really need,
(Fj7)‘Grab ´em by the pussy’, he (Em7)happily shouts,
And (Cj7)when he sees one, he (D)grabs it with speed,
And if the (Em)ladies do not like it, the (B7)admiral (Em)pouts.

‘So un(Am)fair!’ whines the admiral (Fj7)every night,
‘Am I (Am7)really that stupid? Do I (D)really know (E)naught?’(E7)
And he´s (Am)grabbed by a wild (Fj7)ghostly fright,
And he (Bb)cries and he wonders where (Am)brains (G) can be (Am)bought.
(Fj7) (Cj7) (D) (E)

The (Em)admiral has wily a(Am)bettors and aides
Who (Fj7)know that rich old (Em7)white men must rule.
(Cj7)Some of them may have had (D)Mexican maids,
So (Em)sad, for all Mexicans are (B7)rapists and (Em)fools. (Cj7) (D) (Em)

The admiral has so many (Am)enemies,
The (Fj7)media, the wiser folks, (Em7) and the truth.
He´s the (Cj7)mighty king of lies and ca(D)lamities,
And every (Em)day he has the (B7)sad angry (Em)blues.

‘So un(Am)fair!’ whines the admiral (Fj7)every night,
‘Am I (Am7)really that stupid? Do I (D)really know (E)naught?’(E7)
And he´s (Am)grabbed by a wild (Fj7)ghostly fright,
And he (Bb)cries and he wonders where (Am)brains (G) may be (Am)bought.
(Fj7) (Cj7) (Gj7) (Cj7) (Bbj7) (E)

The (Em)admiral is a really (Am)nice and sweet person,
At (Fj7)least that is what the (Em7)admiral says,
But in (Cj7)truth he is nothing but a (D)walking perversion,
A (Em)narcisst, a braggard, a pompous (B7)braindead (Em)ass. (Cj7) (D) (Em)

Some say the admiral is (Am)only a marionette,
(Fj7)Hiding in the shadows is a (Em7)downright evil man,
And the (Cj7)mighty admiral is (D)just a tad sad,
Because the (Em)admiral can´t, but the (B7)evil Nazi (Em)can.

‘So un(Am)fair!’ whines the admiral (Fj7)every night,
‘I am (Am7)really that stupid and I (D)really know (E)naught!’(E7)
And he´s (Am)grabbed by a wild (Fj7)ghostly fright,
And he (Bb)wonders in vain where (Am)brains (G) can be (Am)bought.
(Fj7) (Cj7) (D) (E)

The (Em)admiral sails on the (Am)oceans,
The (Fj7)admiral´s lost on the (E)Seven High Seas…(Am) (G) (A) (Am)

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year...
