Ship of doom ship of hope
SHIP OF DOOM SHIP OF HOPE
We used to sail aboard a ship,
With a brave and faithful crew.
Who stood for morals, right from wrong,
In most things that they do.
They spoke the truth when asked for facts,
Telling lies was not their game.
They stood up tall, for freedom's call,
Some fell in smoke and flame.
Now a woeful day has come our way,
A new crew with evil heart.
Save for a few within who sail,
Who retain that ancient spark.
The darkening of the storm appears,
Descending from grey sky.
With angels from an evil realm,
Who wish we all might die.
They say we're fools who often say,
Our country is the best.
They are proud to have their country fail,
And vanish with the rest.
Time will pass, we shall prevail,
We shall not accept defeat.
Our flag shall fly in spite of them,
Above all others in the fleet
