lyrics

Captain Rufus Dupus is a very tough guy –
Walruses are playing the trombones very high.
Captain Rufus Dupus is counting the bones.
Sailing through the universe talking to ghosts.

Captain Rufus Dupus controls his ship.
He sounds out every time with his long two teeth
in shape of an ape –
He is armed to the teeth with weapons and instruments;
Dupus always
stays true to his fashion, don’t you hear the knocking of the Dutch Clogs?
He has his own
foggy ghosts that coming out of his forehead;
they pouring the last drops of rum down their
throats, they’ve got lollipops and they’re waving them over their heads and they’re shouting:
«Палундра, палундра!»

Cougars are the rescue boats;
Jellyfishes as hats on everybody’s head.
Dupus’ ghosts want him to go to
sick bay and then they start asking him:
If you’re such a tough guy, why don’t you kill a man?
What’s about this little boy, his name is Peter Pan!

Captain Rufus Dupus is a very tough guy –
Walrusses are playing the trombones very high.
Captain Rufus Dupus is counting the bones.
Sailing through the universe talking to ghosts.

So later Rufus Dupus tries to kill Peter Pan,
But Peter says: “Hey, old fogy, catch me if you can!”
In the end the Captain turns into bumblebees,
Flies and riddles Peter with holes so that he looks like cheese.

In the sea there’s a ship,
I warn you, stay away from it and tell it everybody!
In the sea there’s a ship,
‘Insanity never boring’ is written on the flag.
