Styx parody lyrics
Worst of Times
For use with Best of Times
(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)
Tonight’s the night we’ll make (you) history
Hopefully, Bootstrap and I
Cause I’ll take any risk to tie back the hands of blight
And escape from you here tonight
I know Bootstrap feels these are the worst of times
I do believe it’s true
When creatures lock their doors and blight inside
Rumor has it it’s the end of paradise
But I know if the (Black) Pearl should pass you by
Crazy, I know
I wouldn’t have to die, no no
The worst of times
Are when I’m alone with you
Some pain, some brine
Will take this Black Pearl from you
My memories of yesterday
Better (not) last a lifetime
Will break your chest, forget the rest
And someday you’ll find
These are the worst of times
The headlines said yours are the worst of times
I do believe it’s true
You think me helpless
In a boat against the tide
Just wishing the sun-and wind
Could bring back paradise
But I know
The Black Pearl won’t-turn upside down
Crazy (to) think so
As you are sailing around, my my
When I’m alone with you
No-plan is right
Think you are going to fright - en me to - night?
Said when I’m alone with you
Behind the scenes
