I saw them
Yes, the hymn of them on this day
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Sing to the 130
Deja que sus cánones estallen en llamas
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Sing it, it is holy
Deja que sus esperanzas de ganar estallen en llamas
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Sing it with all your glory
I saw them
Yes, I saw them burn
I saw them die that day
So I sung the song across the English Chanel
I did not wish to stay
But as the night was moving, I told the eerie tale
Don't fear the lowly sea dogs
They're mere appalling figures
Strike them out, no longer to be seen
They're dear to Elizabeth, their queen
Soft and slow, their voices tread
In the fog upon the night
Stop and go, the ship heads
For a Spanish ship to fight
Haughty are the sea dogs, an eye on their sword
Back again those nasty hogs, a head rolls on the floor
And on the 9th day, when the tide has come in
The pirates wail like frogs, not able to stand anymore
You'll see that in May, the weather rages again
And they're ships go back and you can mar them
Mar them before you set them aflame
End their misery, so as they're finally sane
Sane once more, cried the Spanish church door
Sane once more
On the waters the Spanish would have sang once more
Sang on the English Chanel forevermore
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
And don't sing it slowly
Y que sus días en el agua no sean ninguno
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
No need for 130
Deja que todo lo que guía mi viaje sea la luna
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
They're no longer in the sea
The pirates are no where that I can see
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Sing it, it is holy
And they sail across the waters
Continuously going farther
Until they see, a patch of green
Nothing they'd ever seen before
So they took their men, about 300 or more
With the cheer of the Spanish Armada
Now they are welcomed with the people all around
Quetzalcoatl is what they were crowned
But they came and saw the riches here were abound
Oh, greed is a funny thing
The land of Cholula now had an echo
And the emperor had died
This land of green was filled with rage
It's people no longer stood and sighed
They came in thousands through the night
The Spanish fled not wanting to fight
Now a Spanish man comes back with allies
And gives this new world a surprise
While conquering with his ruthless ways
His shadow leaves a burning haze
A haze of misery
A haze of pain
As you look in his eyes you see what he wants to say
Haughty are these Natives, they're sick and claim no swords
Back again to the nasty hogs, infectious ooze is on the floor
And on the 9th day, when the tide has come in
These Natives wail like frogs, not able to stand anymore
You'll see that in May, their king rages again
And we bring them disease and you can mar them
Mar them before you set them aflame
End their misery, so as they're finally sane
Sane once more, cried the Spanish church door
Sane once more
Riches for them were always there
You could find gold anywhere
And they gave a lot to Spain
And this was seen as fair
But as this gold and silver depleted
They became plentiful in farms and plantations
Now what they needed
Was to get back on the Armada
Spain was red in anger
The new world was getting new things elsewhere
But the new world trade went on and on
And they brought back slaves to work on their farms
These slaves that boarded the Armada
Were gaunt and chained and starved
No inch of the ship was not full
This hoard looked similar to the magi cicadas
But this happened more than every 17 years
And so they went to this new world
And every passing day the conditions worsened
And the wails of each passing day were sins
Sins that they said weren't forgiven
And the cries of each passing day were sins
Sins that they said weren't forgiven
Many died, thousands died
Many suffered, thousands suffered
So the slaves gave them something to forgive
And wearing the crest of the sea dogs
They stood in front of the ones they called master
And called them their enemy
The food they made was poisoned
And they bitterly smiled doing slow work
The broke the fences with their knees
And they let a song fly in the wind like a bird
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Sing it without pride
Son monstruos con piel de cordero
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
Let their ships collide
Y deja que estas palabras lleguen a todos los oídos
Oh sing, the Spanish Armada
To use they are dead inside
And war went on
Yes, war again
I saw war tear their hearts
And hate
Yes, hate again
I saw hate tear their hearts
Hate was the lightning that struck the Spanish Armada
