Lyrics
Hear the rime of the ancient mariner See his eye as he stops one of three Mesmerises one of the wedding guests Stay here and listen to the nightmares of the sea And the music plays on, as the bride passes by Caught by his spell and the mariner tells his tale Driven south to the land of the snow and ice To a place where nobody's been Through the snow fog flies on the albatross Hailed in God's name, hoping good luck it brings And the ship sails on, back to the north Through the fog and ice and the albatross follows on The mariner kills the bird of good omen His shipmates cry against what he's done But when the fog clears, they justify him And make themselves a part of the crime Sailing on and on and north across the sea Sailing on and on and north 'til all is calm The albatross begins with its vengeance A terrible curse, a thirst has begun His shipmates blame bad luck on the mariner About his neck, the dead bird is hung
