Catherine
Just look at the state I'm in
I'm visibly trembling
I nearly didn't make it back
There was someone, yes
But Cathy, it's meaningless
She's no piratess
and Lord, I'm no Calico Jack

My naked skin
pressed against hers, and then
it was too late, Catherine,
to plan a strategic withdrawal
I couldn't thread
any conclusion yet
There's nothing much to be said
I just had a strange evening is all

The night is fresh
Bring something to cool my flesh
Oh, don't look like that - your precious
boy isn't changing his tack
She's something, yes
She has beautiful hair, I guess
But I keep no mistresses
Lord, I'm no Calico Jack

Je ne reve rien
Oh Catherine
I couldn't say I wouldn't again
but it can't happen again
It went against all of the rules of men
and who wouldn't want that? Is this small
scar nothing but mud? Is my heart's
star one more dud? Is it mardi
gras in my neck of the wood?
Honey, no cigar
I just had a strange evening is all
