lyrics

Mutiny
(Music: J. Young / Lyrics: J. Young)

Incarceration under the vast prison bars of three Oceans
Held captive – endlessly

Cape Horn permitted no course
Under the shadow of the Cape of Good Hope
Under the wings of the eastward bound sails

The Bounty voyaged onwards
Under the shadow of the Cape of Good Hope
With open arms they were led to entrapment

Paradise toyed with their consciousnesses
Amidst dissoluteness and the mind’s exotica
Which cast them into an interim of mental intoxication
But in Bligh’s sense of guilt for indolence
His callousness exceeded his past

Under the banner of mutiny
To the consequence of betrayal
Under the banner of mutiny
To the consequence of betrayal

In the distant whelms
Lay an unthinkable escape
Where it was thought to be it was not
There, the elusive bolthole loomed
Pitcairn’s Island

But innocence had been compounded into depravity
By the deranged acts of men beyond redemption
Who could not return to their rightful nation
No return.
