letra de empire and the right (george) - tanglefoot
intro:
he rules a mighty empire
reigns o’er the land and sea
bestrides the globe invincible
in val’rous victory
those who would oppose him
the path of evil tread
while those who bow before him
surely have nothing to dread
bold defender of the truth
unflinching in his might
his empire everlasting
ever sure and ever right
—————————-
like my father and my grandfather before
we lived in new england a century or more
we plowed our fields when i was a boy
now i’m plowing the ocean for george
he says the foreign tyrant must be put to flight
and i must fight for victory for his empire and his right
at sixteen i left home to sail on the sea
american merchantmen sailors were we
till a royal navy ship fired a shot ‘cross our bow
now i’m sailing the sea for king george
the press gang says that my accent
comes from the isle of wight
and thus a subject of the crown
for king george i must fight
under threat did i toil upon hms victory
until i escaped from the royal navy
for george i was fighting the fierce foreign foe
now the foe that i’m fighting is george
those who seek to rule the world
must one day defeated be
sic semper tyrannis
all will fall eventually
—————————-
outro:
he rules a mighty empire
reigns o’er the land and sea
bestrides the globe invincible
in val’rous victory
those who would oppose him
the path of evil tread
while those who bow before him
surely have nothing to dread
bold defender of the truth
unflinching in his might
his empire everlasting
ever sure and ever right
