Curse of the Crystal Skull Lyrics

As I sail the seas
Through the fog and the dogs of the dead
Like a fantasy
Land appears beyond the masthead

And I'm washed ashore

There's no time to rest
Fantasizing. Mesmerizing
There's a treasure chest
Pierce the night with the sailor's eyes and dig.

Turning smoke into dreams
And thieves to kings
Slip away

As the legend is told
Of bleeding rubies and gold
Of men selling their souls
I keep digging
I've sailed far too long
I'm taking it all with me

As the legend is told
Of bleeding rubies and gold
Of men selling their souls
I keep digging
Catch a ride
Catch a ride
Catch a ride
Catch a ride to destiny

More riches than a king
I find jade of glowing green
And it casts a spell

Sirens call and sing
I lose sight of everything
But the Crystal Skull

And it's pulling me down
Pulling me in
As the legend is told
Of bleeding rubies and gold
Of men selling their souls
I keep falling
I'm sinking deeper
I'm taking it down with me

As the legend is told
Of bleeding rubies and gold
Of men selling their souls
I keep falling
Catch a ride
Catch a ride
Catch a ride
Catch a ride to destiny


(pirates sing)
Yo ho ho, heed the curse of old
Beware the skull in the tale I've told

Yo ho ho, mind your greed and rum
Or you'll go below when the curse is done

Yo ho ho, heed the curse of old
Beware the skull in the tale I've told

Yo ho ho and the curse is done
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
