Song Lyrics Magellan - Storms Mutiny    [Lyrics & Song Text Archive] lyrics archive>> M>> Magellan Singer Lyrics [Magellan other resources]>> Storms Mutiny Song Lyrics Author/Artist/Singer: Magellan Music Title/Track: Storms Mutiny Theme ID: 2645 Album: N/A Crossing the line of demarcation They took a passage to the west Dead reckoning they doubled back Into the north they anchored for bad weather San martin and magellan almost lost sight of the flagship The santiago and victoria led No sign of land altered the course Why not return for winter? No violation of direct royal orders The men, the officers, all cried "return" No captains that had discipline- Rode the high seas in storms and mutiny (with the enemy) Desperately they sought a haven in an age of discovery... Extra precautions, setting anchor as they did Terrified, the crews made pledges back to spain for pilgrimage Lighting fires at night to signal shipmates-at last deliverance From the fury of this godforsaken place they named the "bay Of travail"- Ride the high seas in storms and mutiny (with the enemy) Desperately they sought a haven in an age of discovery... Genius or madman? so elusive were the straits Battered were the ships and men A stop for repairs in st. julian The crew wanted to know the route theyd begun Despite stirring exhortations for loyalty from magellan Onboard concepcion there was mutiny in demand And they moved to take the fleet at night With the knowledge there was blood on their hands But the tables turned-the remaining crew blocked the exit To the sea A sudden advantage for the general using ruthless strategy... Target chosen shrewdly of three vessels controlled by the Mutineers High numbers of neutral foreigners on victoria would not Rise up against him. Pulling hard against an ebb Rebellion muted the message read: "no mistreatment, Ill do whats right" No heavy hand will rule the night On the mainmast high, well raise his flag Court martial pending on trinidad Condemned to death were forty more Mendoza "quartered" upon the shore Poetic justice coming swift and severe But how could he lose so many men? Commute the sentence for the sin Confined to quarters and distasteful labor Convicted conspirators fallen in his disfavor Philosophers and scholars began to challenge The true dimensions of the earth (new evidence uncovered) Finding the straits magellan died triumphant But no vindication came in time No statesman, no royalty- Rode the high seas in storms and mutiny (with the enemy) Desperately they sailed the globe in a voyage of treachery Circumnavigation returning victoria with twenty-one Determined by storms and mutiny He conquered the sea Though honor followed, a witness he would not be......
