The Western Design

Lyrics

In 1654 on Christmas Day the fleet left Portsmouth The British empire, casting off Before the Western design Private citizens or companies Managed the work of expansion Jon Dee, with his scrying mirror Necromanced the British empire Oliver Cromwell kicked it off Brutal men, sick and untrained The work we may do in the world The work we may do in the world They couldn't capture Hispaniola So they went and found a harbour The red dawn of England's empire (400 years) Land of wood and watеr (Xaymaca) The Arawaks, the Arawaks, the Arawaks was thеre first A slave operated imperial profit generator The Western design, a giant Frankenstein 400 years of stealing and killing, a giant Frankenstein Ghostlining the Western design In 1654 on Christmas Day the fleet left Portsmouth The empire, taking off Jon Dee, with his scrying mirror Necromanced the British empire Oliver Cromwell kicked it off Brutal men, sick and untrained The work we may do in the world The work we may do in the world The Western design, a giant Frankenstein 400 years of stealing and killing, a giant Frankenstein Ghostlining the Western design Ghostlining the Western design
