Full Speed Ahead - Battleship Version

Lyrics

Take care, beware,
 Fire off a warning flare!
 Radio dispatch, romantic mismatch,
 Coast Guard, Right Guard,
 Come and help a retard
 Battle the swelling waves
 From the Atlantic's icy age,
 But there's an enemy in sight,
 And a communiqué sent scrambled...
 And then she says, "B-4,
 I'm gonna wage a whole war,
 I'll C-2 it that your battleship
 Is sunk way down or run-a-run-aground."
 Scrap heap, dead meat,
 And as the water rose
 He heard from down below...
 All his boys say, "It's O.K.!
 We've got a tab at the bar
 That we ain't gonna pay,
 You know we're tough as nails
 And we're gonna stay that way!
 FULL SPEED! AHEAD!
 Grab the wheel, use your head.
 We're gonna sail fast
 And we're gonna go real, go real far."
 And what we've got
 Is the unsinkable sub-plot
 Of real life fiction taking on a mission—
 Waterloo (Screw You!), WWII (Yeah!)
 Now I know you think
 That at times it really stinks:
 Booby-trapped love den,
 Hanging out in Ho Chi Minh,
 Midway, on the sea
 Fighting of the Japanese
 And she says, "B-4,
 I'm gonna wage a whole war,
 I'll C-2 it that your battleship
 Is sunk way down or run-a-run-aground."
 Scrap heap, dead meat,
 And as the water rose
 He heard from down below...
 All his boys say, "It's O.K.!
 We've got a tab at the bar
 That we ain't gonna pay,
 You know we're tough as nails
 And we're gonna stay that way!
 FULL SPEED! AHEAD!
 Grab the wheel, use your head.
 We're gonna sail fast
 And we're gonna go real, go real far."
 As far as I know the whole damn crew
 Is in the boiler room.
 Puttin' on the pressure
 And holding it together.
 I know they got my back,
 And I know they got yours, too!
 And all his boys say, (Hell yeah!)
 "It's O.K.!
 We've got a tab at the bar
 That we ain't gonna pay,
 You know we're tough as nails
 And we're gonna stay that way!
 FULL SPEED! AHEAD!
 Grab the wheel, use your head.
 We're gonna sail fast
 And we're gonna go real, go real far."
