letra de the battle of denmark strait - beatnik turtle

in the shipyards of scotland, they raise a king ship
built as strong and as light as they could
with fifteen inch guns she moved near thirty knots
they named her the hms hood

on the 23rd day, in a light month of may
she sailed out fourteen hundred aboard
beside her would sail the new prince of wales
setting out on a cold gray morn
hood and the prince northwesterly charge
to protect shipments bound for home
two ships were seen flying red and black
lurking in the denmark strait
the battleship bismark prinz eugen
searched for allied mеrchants to drown
hood would need all of the speed
for the bismark’s might was renown

at thirteen milеs out the hood’s constant shout
broadside, they charged the third reich
well hood and her partner shot straight and true
but bismark stood firm through the strike

as the hood drew in near, hercaptain knew fear
for the hood, its guns made a turn
the bismark let fire a deadly barrage
struck the hood ‘tween mast and the stern

a [?] flame screamed out the sky
exposing the midship to day
a panic ensued as the hood broke in two
bow and stern sank straightway

of fourteen hundred fifteen brave souls
only three did the hood’s hull release
the rest carried down to the ocean’s ground
forever may they rest in peace

the whole of britannia swore to revenge
they sought the bismark and drowned her
it wouldn’t bring the hood back from the ocean below
or the fourteen hundred men that surround her
her name it lives on though she doesn’t move
in the waters where she never fades
the price that was paid and the sacrifice made
at the bottom of denmark strait

in the shipyards of scotland a kingship was raised
strong and mighty it stood
with fifteen inch guns she moved near thirty knots
they named her the hms hood
