Sword Of Damocles

With audacity and courage - It controls the seven seas

Lurking 'neath the surface - The menace of the deep

Renowned it's deadly arsenal - Last hope for those at home

Built on stealth technology - below fiery waves it roams

In sixty years of Cold War these things never engaged

Now terrible means to a policy of perishers gone astray

Dispatch the warmachines

Quintessential submarines

Missiles ready at command

The rain of doom is now at hand

Now they will feel the wrath

The sword of Damocles will fall

Now they will feel the wrath

For all

The sharks are in position, Prepared to remove the threat

There's no sign of the enemy, The coordinates are set

Clear the field of fire and the angle of projection

Once the target has been locked, fire at discretion

The ICBMs have been unleashed - it's victims we won't see

Yet the size of it's destruction - Unequalled in history

The Middle East is burning - A furnace of fire and dust

By millions they are dying - But rather them than us

Now they will feel the wrath

The sword of Damocles will fall

Now they will feel the wrath

For all

Never in all these centuries was a battle so unfair

They never saw it coming, for them we weren't there

Our tubes of mass destruction

Launched from many miles offshore

A strategy of cowardness, No heroism left in war
