What Could Go Wrong lyrics
by Jon English
[HELMSMAN]
Four bells, all's well
Clear night, wind's light
[AENEAS]
Out there with the sea sprites singing
Wind and stars to guide us along
Who cares what the Fates are bringing?
Oh, what could go wrong?
[PARIS]
Out here where the night breeze blowing
Seems like she's singing along
Who cares just where we're going?
Oh, what could go wrong?
[HELMSMAN]
Six bells, all's well
Black horizon, sea's rising
[AENEAS AND PARIS]
It's the night for magic
Out here on the sea
Seem even the gods must be
Smiling at me
And the whole world's a picture
And the wind is a song
With my friends and I
And the sea and the sky
What could go wrong?
[HELMSMAN]
Eight bells
[AENEAS, spoken]
Secure the hold!
[HELMSMAN]
And it looks like hell
[AENEAS, spoken]
Take cover below
Paris, come down from that mast
[PARIS, spoken]
Don't worry!
[AENEAS, spoken]
Paris!
[PARIS]
Don't worry!
Out here with the storms a-brewing
And the waves to help us along
[AENEAS, spoken]
Paris!
[PARIS]
The sea's taking us where we're going
[AENEAS, spoken]
Come down
[PARIS]
Oh, what could go wrong?
[AENEAS]
Someone get him down
[PARIS]
It's the night for magic
Out here on the sea
[AENEAS AND HELMSMAN]
Come down!
[PARIS]
Seems even the gods
Must be, ah, laughing with me
[AENEAS, spoken]
Paris, come down
[PARIS]
And the storm paint a picture
[AENEAS and HELMSMAN]
Come down!
[PARIS]
And the wind howls along
With my friends and I
My friends and I
[AENEAS, spoken]
Come down
[PARIS]
And the sea and the sky!
Don't worry!
[AENEAS, spoken]
Paris!
[PARIS]
Don't worry!
What could go wrong?
Don't wo- ahhhhhhhhh
