Original about lost explorers

lyrics

Captain Franklin marched into the void
On account of lead, his mind destroyed
The crew was cut to bits they're bones were boiled
upon the ice he shed his mortal coil

Never found
Never found
Never found
Never found
Dead will never rest in peace

Percy Fawcett toured the Amazon
By dead horse camp they were as good as gone
He brought no gift to pay his jungle guide
He was castrated and burned alive

Never found
Never found
Never found
Never found
Dead will never rest in peace

All brave explorers driving on
Never look back their shadows long
Searching for what lies beyond
Never fearing to carry on
We'll never know just what went wrong
They went too far they stayed too long
The best laid schemes of mice and men so often go awry in the end

Haliburton was brave and strong
Built a Chinese junk and sail and sailed from Hong Kong
The typhoon struck them just past Midway
His fame and glory drowned beneath the waves

Never found
Never found
Never found
Never found
Dead will never rest in peace

Vogel traveled to the Nile valley
He climbed the sacred mountain of the Wadai
The Sultan angered by his foolish pride
Beat him with iron clubs and plucked his eyes

Never found
Never found
Never found
Never found
Dead will never rest in peace

All brave explorers driving on
Never look back their shadows long
Searching for what lies beyond
Never fearing to carry on
We'll never know just what went wrong
They went too far they stayed too long
The best laid schemes of mice and men so often go awry in the end
