Bay State runner talk easy speak
Wear your pirate halo
Your heart pumps gasoline
The fast ship ever set to sea
Those coast guard cutters
Sail right out of their league
In low light, in dead night
Old rum runner
Black Duck on the sea
Cheap bootleggin, man, that's the crime
Ditch that bathtub gin
Toss that dandelion wine
New Year's Ever 1929
Pump the blood of New England's finest
In low light, in dead night
Open fire!
Black Duck on the sea
Shout no warning and flash no light
It's machine gun fire
Like hail into our side
A hundred rounds, maybe two or three
I jumped over board or they would have gotten me
In low light, in dead night
Old rum runner
Black Duck on the sea

Belaver’s “Trash” builds from hushed verses to a big, booming crescendo of a chorus, with lyrics that praise finding beauty in darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 14, 2018
