Full Speed Ahead

Lyrics

Six hundred men, six hundred men under my command
 With only one goal in mind (make it back alive to our homeland)
 Six hundred men, six hundred miles of open sea
 But the problem's not the distance (it's what lies in between)
 And Ithaca's waiting (Ithaca's waiting)
 My kingdom is waiting (the kingdom is waiting)
 Penelope's waiting for me (waiting)
 So full speed ahead
 Full speed ahead
 Captain (Eurylochus)
 Six hundred men (six hundred men)
 Six hundred men with big mouths to feed
 And we've run out of supplies to eat (curse the war, our food store's depleted)
 Six hundred men (six hundred men)
 Six hundred reasons to take what we can
 So captain, what's the plan? (Captain, what's the plan?)
 Watch where the birds fly (watch where the birds fly)
 They will lead us to land (they will lead us to land)
 There we'll hunt for food, my second in command
 Now full speed ahead (we're up, we're off, and away we go)
 (We're up, we're off, and away we go)
 Full speed ahead (we're up, we're off, and away we go)
 Captain (Polities)
 Look! There in the distance, I see an island
 I see a light that faintly glows
 Maybe they're people lighting a fire
 Maybe they'll share some food, who knows?
 Something feels off here, I see fire, but there's no smoke
 I say we strike first, we don't have time to waste
 So let's raid the place, and-
 No
 Polites gear up, you and I'll go ahead (you and I'll go ahead)
 We should try to find a way no one ends up dead
 We don't know what's ahead
 Give me 'til sunrise, and if we don't return
 Then six hundred men can make this whole place burn
 Now full speed ahead
 Full speed ahead
 Full speed ahead
 We're up, we're off, and away we go
 (We're up, we're off, and away we go) full speed ahead
 (We're up, we're off, and away we go)
 (We're up, we're off, and a-)
 Full speed ahead
