Despite repeated warnings Of dangers up ahead The captain won’t be listening To what’s been said
He feels that there’s a good chance That we have been misled And so the captain’s planning To steam ahead
What can we do, what can we do What can we do to stop this foolish plan going through What can we do, what can we do This man is bound to lose his ship and his crew
Despite repeated warnings From those who ought to know He’s got his own agenda And so he’ll go
Those who shout the loudest May not always be the smartest But they have their proudest moments Right before they fall
Red sky in the morning Doesn’t ever seem to phase him But a sailor’s warning signal Should concern us all
How can we stop him Grab the keys and lock him up If we can do it We can save the day
The engineer lives with His wife and daughter Janet But he misses them so
Although he’s working with The best crew on the planet (Best crew on the planet!) They never want him to go
He had a premonition He senses something’s wrong And by his own admission He knew it all along
The captain’s crazy But he doesn’t let them know it He’ll take us with him If we don’t do something Soon to slow it
How can we stop him Grab the keys and lock him up If we can do it We can save the day
Below decks the engineer cries The captain’s gonna leave us when the temperatures rise The needle’s going up The engine’s gonna blow And we’re gonna be left down below Down below
Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it
Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now
If life would work out The way you plan it That’d be so fine For the wife and Janet
Sometimes you might Have to battle through it But that’s the way you learn How you’ve got to do it
Yes, we can do it whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it whoa, whoa
Despite repeated warnings Of dangers up ahead Well the captain wasn’t listening To what was said
So we went to the captain And we told him to turn around But he laughs in our faces Says that we are mistaken
So we gather around him Now the ropes that have bound him Prove that he should have listened To the will of the people It’s the will of the people It’s the will of the peopleTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
