The siren is whining

It's time for clear ship again

The heart beat's pounding

Pumped with adreline

The crew's so tired and fed up

They want to go back home

Inhuman conditions

They can't put up for long



Goddamn war

That's simply what they're employed for



H.M.S. Ulysses, queen of the sea

Has begun her last journey

H.M.S. Ulysses, lucky ship

Fight, survive - Win the war for peace



Sent as a guardian

To watch the whole convoy

But will just be bait

To catch the enemy

Admiral Tirpitz

Is a dreaded foe

Hiding deep in a bay

On Norway's western shore



Goddamn war

That's simply what they're employed for



H.M.S. Ulysses, queen of the sea

Has begun her last journey

H.M.S. Ulysses, lucky ship

Fight, survive - Win the war for peace



Goddamn war

That's simply what they're employed for



H.M.S. Ulysses, queen of the sea

Has begun her last journey

H.M.S. Ulysses, lucky ship

Fight, survive - Win the war for peace
