When he was a bCoy he wanted to pGlay Amdown by the sFea
At age thirtCeen everyday after schGool Amhe would always saFil around the lakCe
CAll the people would stand and stare as he saGiled around with precision and care With his biAm-corner hat and the way he would stand he looFked just like a Navy man AmAll the townsfolk would gather and saFy, and sing away
CCaptain Albert AleGxander He'll be a bAmrave seafarer someFday But that CapCtain Albert AleGxander AmHe'll go down in the wFaves

AmAlbert stood at the sFtern of his ship A Amgiant octopus had Fhim in it's grip A vAmortex of spiraling dFeath below ripped Am * F * and sharks and electric eels all made the trip to see AAmlbert Csink to the bottom of the Fsea
