Lyrics

Georgian Navy

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We're the georgian navy

We've never been beat

Thanks to admiral Nelson

Commander of the fleet

The only things I've ever lost

Are this eye and this arm

Yet playing with these balls

Can really do you harm

He's the gaffer, he's the boss

Knows every naval trick

The surprising thing about him

Is that sailing makes him sick

Georgian navy, georgian navy

This is gonna be your Waterloo

Nelson's navy, Nelson's navy

We're gonna sink one more than you

England expects every man

To do his duty right

Your side's not just from England

You tried to start a fight

I'm from Ireland, Scotland, Wales

Transferred from the french

We've even got west indians

Sitting on the bench

Some of them were forced to sign

Some chose to join my crew

We fight to get our win bonus

But say we fight for you

England (sort of)

England (well no it's not)

We're gonna sink one more than you

Rule Britannia, rule Britannia

When it comes to my attack

The gunners are my team

We've got the strongest arsenal

The world has ever seen

Thanks to drill and practise

We are magic with a ball

Means the french and spanish ships

Don't stand a chance at all

We gain some nasty injuries

Sometimes it's best to die

If you're hit by the enemy

You're lucky to survive

Magic sponge?

Magic saw

You've got to wait to fight

Only do it when it's right

You've got to break their line

They'll be swimming in the brine

Pick your time to shoot

Then their ships we're going to loot

Going to be a hoot

For scurvy have some fruit

Half time orange anyone?

Georgian navy, georgian navy

Won at Trafalgar, but got shot, ow!

Nelson's navy, Nelson's navy

You think it's all over (kiss me hardy)

It is now
