Discover the story of the song > Bottom of the Sea – the jolly rogers

The song is about life, love, and death. The protagonist encourages their friends to enjoy life and not worry about the future because death is inevitable and it's a long way down to the bottom of the sea where everyone will end up eventually. They suggest drinking and having fun while they are alive because they can't avoid death, but they can try to make the most of their lives before they get there. The song also hints at the idea of an afterlife where they will meet again with their friends who have already passed away.
