Lyrics
An unrelenting siege in a howling gale Silhouettes with half-pikes on a bloody sail A silent signal, the long ship comes to ground See the carnage, listen to the dreadful sound... Roaring waters drowning out our screams Roaring waters, drag away our daughters To the Sultan's harems for sex Contemptuous marauders from a Moorish plain They came to plunder then they'll sail away again Thirty down and counting, no one left to fight Hear the carnage, look upon this dreadful sight Roaring waters drowning out our screams Roaring waters, drag away our daughters To the Sultan's harems Fearless captors leering at their latest catch Salivating at them through the serving hatch Death, sex, poop decks, the cloying stench of hell Feel the carnage, take a lungful of this dreadful smell Roaring waters drowning out our screams Roaring waters, drag away our daughters To the Sultan's harems
