Please the Captain was my father,
Call me Daybreak.
Honestly, you're the one that,
through dead reconning alone,
climbed up all the rigging in the yard arm to get up to the crows nest,
Even though you were all partied out before you started climbing...
AND
You started playing super funky NOLA music as soon as you got up there.
If anyone is the captain here,
It's you Captain Isaac!
