The HMS Traitor (Remastered)
[Verse 1] Oh, the HMS Traitor sailed the stormy sea, With a crew of scallywags and a captain so free, But whispers of mutiny spread ‘cross the deck, As the pirates planned to break the captain’s neck. The first mate hollered, “We’ll strike at dawn, Toss him overboard, and then we’ll be gone!” But as they crept with daggers drawn, The sea itself had a trick to spawn. [Chorus] So mind the ship and steer it well, Where treachery sank and honor did swell, A mutineer’s plot may seem quite grand, But loyalty’s the compass that guides our hands. [Verse 2] From the depths below, a whale did rise, With glowing eyes ‘neath moonlit skies, It sang a song that shook the mast, And the mutineers’ courage fled so fast. Then Davy Jones, with a ghostly grin, Appeared on deck with a rum-soaked fin, He pointed at the mutinous crew, “This captain’s heart be truer than you!” [Chorus] So mind the ship and steer it well, Where treachery sank and honor did swell, A mutineer’s plot may seem quite grand, But loyalty’s the compass that guides our hands. [Verse 3] The crew stood frozen, fear in their eyes, As the captain bellowed ‘neath stormy skies, “Ye think ye can take what’s rightfully mine, But the sea protects those who toe the line.” The whale circled ‘round, its song like thunder, The mutineers’ plans torn asunder, With Davy Jones watching from the deep, The Traitor’s crew would no secrets keep. [Chorus] So mind the ship and steer it well, Where treachery sank and honor did swell, A mutineer’s plot may seem quite grand, But loyalty’s the compass that guides our hands. [Verse 4] With a flick of his wrist, the captain did spare, The lives of those who would no longer dare, To challenge the might of the sea and its lore, For they knew they’d face its wrath once more. Now hear this tale with a warning clear, Mutiny brings naught but dread and fear, For the HMS Traitor sails ever on, With tales of loyalty forever strong. [Chorus] So mind the ship and steer it well, Where treachery sank and honor did swell, A mutineer’s plot may seem quite grand, But loyalty’s the compass that guides our hands. [Outro] So heed this warning, ye sailors bold, Mutiny’s a curse, a story oft told, For those who plot ’gainst captain and crew, The sea will rise and swallow you!
