1741 (The Battle Of Cartagena) - Alestorm

1741 (The Battle Of Cartagena)

Alestorm


Lyrics:
Sailing the raging seas
To distant lands unknown
Porto Bello fell in a day
Now Britannia rules the waves
Thirty thousand men at arms
Red Ensign in the sky
To Cartagena we set sail
With blood and plunder we'll prevail
Twice struck, and twice we've failed
But third time works a charm
The greatest fleet the world has seen
To fight the War of Jenkins' Ear
Waters lash across the bow
Through Caribbean Seas
The year is 1741
The final battle has begun
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today
Across the sea-lashed deck
Our captain gives a cry
"Cartagena lies ahead
The Spanish foe will soon be dead!"
Portents of coming doom
Engulf the battle line
High above, the heavens sigh
A red light burning in the sky
An omen of dread
Which no man can deny
The legends hold true
We must turn back or die
Superstitious fools
Be gone from my sight
Blast the trumpets of war
And prepare for the fight
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today
Hard to starboard
Man the cannons
And on my command, unleash hell!
FIRE! Show them your steel
Bring them to death on the battlefield
Ride on the wind, and conquer the foe
The legends be damned, to our deaths we will ago
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
The sands of time will remember our names
The skies are burning with thunder
The seas are ablaze with flame
Set the course for Cartagena
History is written today

Letra:
Navegando los furiosos mares
Para alejarnos de tierras desconocidas
Porto Bello cayó en un día
Ahora Britannia gobierna las olas
Treinta mil hombres a los escudos
Una bandera roja en el cielo
A Cartagena navegamos
Con sangre y botín triunfaremos
Dos veces heridos, y dos veces fallamos
Pero a la tercera va la vencida
La mejor flota que el mundo ha visto
Para luchar la guerra de la oreja de Jenkins
Las aguas azotan la proa
A través de mares caribeños
El año es 1741
La batalla final ha comenzado
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy
Alrededor de la cubierta del mar azotado
Nuestro capitán da el grito
"¡Tenemos delante a Cartagena
los enemigos españoles estarán pronto muertos!"
Presagios de la fatalidad que viene
Traga la línea de batalla
Muy por encima, los cielos suspiran
Una luz roja arde en el cielo
Un presagio del terror
Que ningún hombre puede negar
Las legendas juzgan
Debemos volver o morir
Tontos supersticiosos
Se fueron desde mi suspiro
Explotan las trompetas de guerra
Y preparaos para la guerra
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy
Fuerte a estribor
Tripulad los cañones
¡Y en mi comando, desatraillad el infierno!
¡FUEGO! Enseñadles el acero
Llevadlos a la muerte en el campo de batalla
Cabalgad en el viento, y conquistad al enemigo
Las legendas están malditas, a nuestras muertes iremos
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
Las arenas del tiempo recordarán nuestros nombres
Los cielos arden con truenos
Los mares se inflaman en llamas
Establece el rumbo de Cartagena
La historia es escrita hoy

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...
