Mutiny
Finally, the ship Queen Mary had set sail.
With a crew out for vengeance on the open sea.
Capt. Wood was captain, without blemish, or fail.
Listen to this story of betrayal,
As the Queen Mary set sail under Capt. Wood the mighty.
Finally, the ship Queen Mary had set sail.
A fortnight out, the Queen Mary screamed a wail.
Her captain was seized and bound, as the crew bathed in the glory.
Capt. Wood was captain, without blemish, or fail.
Painful it is to recall this tragic tale,
The crew planned for days; it was all their minds' eye could see.
Finally, the ship Queen Mary had set sail.
Sadly, the evil in men's hearts did prevail.
Why they hated the captain is a mystery even to me.
Capt. Wood was captain, without blemish, or fail.
Remember this event, now a story, a tale.
Always think of what the next tale could be.
Finally, the ship Queen Mary had set sail.
Capt. Wood was captain, without blemish, or fail.
