The Mutineers

Proud devoted life for the British Empire
Loyal as its hounds and fighting for a few pounds
How sailors can be wrong! How beauty can be
More than tan Nereids greeting a ship!

None of all the curses of Mars and Neptune
Simply among the flowers life is passing by
Is all that I needed in this heavenly isle
Reflected by pure waters swaying in her eyes?

For paradise for our love we are mutineers
While chasing gold we forgot the old
Nevermore fight nevermore sacrifice here all we are
Richer than kings scream Huzzah for Otaheite!

For paradise for our love we are mutineers
While chasing gold we forgot the old
Nevermore fight nevermore sacrifice for the companies
Offering souls to their endless hunger

I am in hell! In hell, sir, I'm in hell!
Get off the ship! Sail the waves of fate
Giving no more lashes on our pride! We are mutineers
For our heaven here on Otaheite!

For paradise (we are mutineers)
Richer than kings (all we are)
No sacrifice (no more fight)
Heaven is here (Huzzah for Otaheite!)
