Fear On The Bridge (upon The Boiling Sea I) Lyrics

Fear On The Bridge (upon The Boiling Sea I) lyrics

Behold a speeding shape

A ship upon the waves

Racing swift as death



Torment from the pits of Hell

In seas where pirates dwell

The armada sets its course

Shadowed by skull and cross-boned force

The crow's nest spots the flag

The captain's plans have hit a snag

With your lives, defend the gold

In a fire fight yet to unfold

Opposing ships steered side by side

Fear on the bridge is realized

Cannons blaze in wood they blast

The Spanish ship is sinking fast



Raiders board the ship

Plunder all their fold

As they're lunging for the kill

Their riches will be ours

Take no prisoners

Leave no man alive

For the ransacking awaits

The decks awash with blood



Fight to the death

There is no other way

Honour will say

Kill

That captains duel on the plank



When all are dead and all is won

There's riches here to steal

Bodies scattered by the waves

For sharks do make their meal in flesh

Flesh

Rain begins to fall

Their fold becomes our wealth

As they sink into the sea

No mercy for the rich

We wash their blood

From our bounty gold

We feast tonight



We're heading due west

For the secret island port

The plunder divides

But give a piece to the sea



When madness of the fever grips and greed is taking hold

Nothing can ever cure your thirst except for rum and gold

Nothing can quench the thirst except for rum and gold
