Royal Galley Lyrics

By the rail he stands 

 on black waves he rides 

 The tomorrow belongs to him 

 and the queen by his side 

 Do not fear the storm 

 master the oaken galley 

 and be brave at heart 

 for your king and country 

 

 Turn the prow towards the storm 

 for it's too late to turn back 

 

 Royal galley under the sky 

 Ooooh ooooh 

 Breaking waves oh, so high 

 Ooooh ooooh 

 

 The ship is swaying 

 great white sails are torn 

 "Work harder faithful crew, 

 or you'll do nothing more." 

 The firm hand of doom 

 makes the ship heal. 

 Rocking out of control

 bending up its keel 

 The impsing galley twists and turns 

 struggling in the wild waves

 Royal galley sailing no more 

 

 Ooooh ooooh 

 The ship is doomed forevermore 

 Ooooh ooooh 

 

 Panic and agony hands in the cold air 

 as we're heading towards our destiny 

 The figurehead is going down towards the black end 

 never to be seen again crossing the seven seas 

 Clashing waves are our tragic requiem 

 since the maiden voyage was the last to be 

 

 The golden flagship of the fleet 

 is heading for its deepest grave

 Royal galley lost at sea 

 

 Ooooh ooooh 

 Down in the deep, resint in peace 

 Ooooh ooooh
