Tirpitz

[Intro]
"Auf Befehl des Führers und obersten Befehlshaber der Wehrmacht
Taufe ich dich auf den Namen 'Tirpitz'."

[Verse 1]
Sitting on watch
In deep and icy boreal fjords
Yet untouchable
A man-made mountain of cold
Wotan-Stahl
Wielding a silent reign of terror
From afar, northernmost
Summoned to this distant post
Still shrouded under heavy clouds
And worthy crowned by glacial mountain chains
Absolute supremacy

[Chorus]
A fleet in being
Avoided fearfully
By all her enemies
The lonely queen of the north
Raising her lethal scepter
All superior artillery
But doomed to fall as the last of her kind

[Verse 2]
A cathedral of steel
Dedicated to annihilation and dismay
Wearing the signum of oppression
Surrounded by auroras of perdition
Breathing chemical fog
Even trees refuse to grow

[Chorus]
A fleet in being
Despised abysmally
By all her enemies
The lonely queen of the north
Raising her lethal scepter
All superior artillery
But doomed to fall as the last of her kind

[Post-Chorus]
Direct hits
Out of clear skies
Twelve thousand pounds
Armor piercing Tallboy bombs
Putting an end
To her command
The death knell sounding
Over this iron tomb

[Outro: Sample]
Now through the clouds above the north coast of Norway
The camera of an Australian Lancaster spots the Tirpitz in the Tromsø fjord
Smokescreens stream around the great battleship
But earthquake bombs drop toward the target and hit
Flak puffs dangerously around the plane
An earthquake bomb bursts on the shore
But three others hit the Tirpitz fore, aft, and amidships
Below in Tromsø fjord, as the Tirpitz keels over, shrouded in smoke
The shadow of Nazi conquest shrinks from the north
