Relics

Verse 1

Ponce De Leon

Afraid of Kingdom Come

Took his men far to the west

Map in hand

They search the islands

hoping to accomplish their quest

They found a place

that had the slightest trace

of a treasure greater than gold

And then Ponce De Leon

influenced by the rum

found a way to never grow old

Chrous 1

they’ll search through bones, bones, bones

like indiana jones

looking for the fountain of youth

and when they find find find

a way to stop time

they ‘ll think they’ve discovered the truth

but when they friends have all passed on

and their will to live is gone

they just be relics lost in time

Verse 2

Pirates at sea

Following their dreams

of treasures a mile high

Their guided by a map

were X marks a trap

and birds, they never fly

through jungles of trees

they navigate degrees

hoping a fortune lies ahead

And as come upon a spot

where dead pirates rot

they all fear they’ll soon be be dead

Chorus 2

they’ll search those bones, bones, bones

like indiana jones

looking for the temple of doom

And then they’ll find find find

a pyramid entwined

in a maze of vines that leads to a tomb

and once the treasure is dispersed

captain and crew will all be cursed

then they’ll be relics lost in time

Verse 3

King Arthur and his knights

they always fought the good fight

freely people from tyranny

But there was one quest

that Arthur tried his best

but he succumbed to the powers that be

Out from the clouds

a voice came strong and loud

Arthur: Your must seek the holy grail

So with swords in hand

they conquered the promise land

so that England could prevail

Chorus 3

they’ll search those bones, bones, bones

like indiana jones

looking for that holy grail

and when they find find find

the cup that saved man kind

they be merry and drink as it were ale

but when they tried to leave that room

they found that it’d become their tomb

they’d become relics lost in time
