letra de gunship mars - the merchant men
verse 1:
twas fifteen sixty four we embarked sweden’s prize sensation
loaded to the gills with guns and silver of the nation
unrivalled not just in name for mightier there was none
the largest warship on the seas
makalös the fearsome man of war
chorus:
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more
smoke and fire sent you to the floor
oh you curséd nordic vessel of war
verse 2:
born from the hubris of a king, threatened by the church
why, one hundred and seventy three cannons dressed her broadsides
each one forged from the king’s h–rd of stolen molten church bells
his arrogance and sacrilege
would doom his beloved barge of war
chorus:
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more, (we long for the shore)
smoke and fire sent you to the floor
oh you curséd nordic vessel of war
verse 3:
last day of may were we rolling down, 3 leagues from coast
drinking beer when olsson cried, “all hands to your posts!”
as the danish hove in sight, we stood by to fight
our culverins extinguished the threat
none could vanquish mars the god of war
chorus:
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more, (we long for the shore)
smoke and fire sent you to the floor, (sinking through the cold black waters to the ocean floor)
oh you curséd nordic vessel of war
verse 4:
but soon bold germans came to avenge the danes we’d decimated
on us cascades of fire fell and swallowed mars in flame
its cannons yielding to the heat, exploded in frenzy
that blazing, cratered tomb of gold
blew us all down to the ocean floor
chorus:
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more, (we long for the shore)
smoke and fire sent you to the floor, (sinking through the cold black waters to the ocean floor)
oh you curséd nordic vessel of war
verse 5:
phantoms we rise from watery graves, (watery graves) safeguarding our fortune
our souls roam the baltic sea, (baltic sea) bestowing a caution
“none may find that which lies deep, beneath restless waters
surrender search or ye beware
of the curséd battleship of yore.”
chorus:
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more, (we long for the shore)
smoke and fire sent you to the floor, (sinking through the cold black waters to the ocean floor)
oh you curséd nordic vessel of war
gunship mars, unholy weapon of yore
all 900 souls are no more, (we long for the shore)
smoke and fire sent you to the floor, (sinking through the cold black waters to the ocean floor)
oh you curséd
nordic
vessel of war
