The HMS Abandoned

This demo isn't perfect but I like it enough to share. Click the HERE for the MP3 file.

The HMS Abandoned
The winds a bit too strong
The waves a bit too long
And I fear that we've a good ship Abandoned
So all hands on deck for we're going to be wrecked
On Her Majesty's good ship Abandoned

Calling for the good ship Abandoned
Where we give up before we set sail
Far out at sea's where we never will be
Riding high on the waves at the rail

Two ships pass in the night
Extinguishing their lights
And it looks like we've a good ship Abandoned
So man all the lifeboats there'll be no more demands
On Her Majesty's good ship Abandoned

Here on the HMS Abandoned
Abandon ship!
Abandon ship!

Crying for the good ship Abandoned
Where we give up before we set sail
Far out at sea's where we never will be
Riding high on the waves at the rail

This here is the HMS Abandoned
Abandon Ship!
Abandon Ship!

The rudder's made of steel
But there's no one at the wheel
Here on the good ship Abandoned
So sound general quarters we're down all hard aground
On Her Majesty's good ship Abandoned

Come back to the good ship Abandoned
Where we give up before we set sail
Far out at sea's where we never will be
Riding high on the waves at the rail
We have lost the good ship Abandoned
We surrender so we cannot fail

Stuck here on the HMS Abandoned
Abandon Ship!
Abandon Ship!
