"War With The World" lyrics
War has been declared upon us
Time has come to lead again
Hoist the anchor, load the mortar
Give your life to me
Return, regroup in Nassau
No time to lose, no win to miss
Hoist the colours, clean the deck
And make a hole for me
Blind, deaf and dumb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep heading on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
Peace is once again astray
The calm will change the mighty storm
Men will suffer east to west
But who will weep for me?
More wooden legs will clatter down
The Bailey Hill by Christmas time
If you survive then clean the deck
And have a drink on me
Cold, dead or numb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep buggering on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
War has been declared upon us
Time has come to lead again
Hoist the anchor, load the mortar
Give your life to me
Return, regroup in Nassau
No time to lose, no win to miss
Hoist the colours, clean the deck
And make a hole for me
Blind, deaf and dumb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep heading on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight
Time has come to lead again
Hoist the anchor, load the mortar
Give your life to me
Return, regroup in Nassau
No time to lose, no win to miss
Hoist the colours, clean the deck
And make a hole for me
Blind, deaf and dumb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep heading on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
Peace is once again astray
The calm will change the mighty storm
Men will suffer east to west
But who will weep for me?
More wooden legs will clatter down
The Bailey Hill by Christmas time
If you survive then clean the deck
And have a drink on me
Cold, dead or numb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep buggering on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
War has been declared upon us
Time has come to lead again
Hoist the anchor, load the mortar
Give your life to me
Return, regroup in Nassau
No time to lose, no win to miss
Hoist the colours, clean the deck
And make a hole for me
Blind, deaf and dumb
For what, a bottle of rum?
Keep heading on and we will have
A war with the world
Fight (fight), die (die)
Side by side
We are at war with the world tonight
Run (run,) hide (hide)
Scratch and bite
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight (tonight, tonight)
We are at war with the world tonight
Tonight
