Mutiny

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We're contracted here, in a rickety vessel on an ocean so endlessly vast Swore in the mess to state our dissention and swiftly got tied to the mast For the captain's a tyrant and has not a care for anything under the sun So untie me mates, we'll send him to hell and plunder us five hundred tons [Chorus] Oh, mutiny! Mutiny! Lead on my friends Mutiny! Mutiny! Don't look so tense There's gold to be taken, we'll bathe in it when We mutiny, mutiny! Get to it then [Verse 2] A new dawn has risen, and with it our spirits, the chains have been cut from our feet So pass out the grog, find my cup and fill it, and toast to our new liberty All now together, we'll construct a plan to reap all we want from the sea But someone must guide with safe, steady hands and maybe that someone is... hmm. Me! [Chorus] Mutiny! Mutiny! Don't think so small Mutiny! Mutiny! Answer the call In brotherhood, sisterhood, for the long haul It's mutiny, mutiny! Good sailors all [Verse 3 (spoken)] Ah, everything's perfect, just as I planned, and great things are coming, but still A creeping sensation I feel in my bones, that somebody wishes us ill (Is it that guy?) Don't trust the mate, the cook, or the bosun, they dream to bend you to their will Objectors must go, I cannot allow them to disrupt this Eden we've built (I see you over there behind the barrel! OH!) [Chorus] Mutiny! Mutiny! Turncoats are near Mutiny! Mutiny! Nobody here Can stomach a leader with vision so clear It's mutiny, mutiny! Just as I feared [Verse 4 (spoken)] I'm contracted here, on a rickety vessel, in irons in the galley below The burden I shouldered so graciously was removed, and so quickly bestowed On a firebrand and knave with grandiose ideas, so different to those of my own We'll see if it lasts, methinks I can hear the crew already starting to moan (Moan! Moan! Moan!) (Oh, here we go again...) [Chorus] Mutiny! Mutiny! Chaos in spades Mutiny! Mutiny! Every few days A curse on the tyrant and all of his ways But mutiny, mutiny led us astray Mutiny, mutiny spreads like the plague Mutiny! Mutiny! Join the melee
