[00:02.000] Despite repeated warnings
[00:07.490] Of dangers up ahead
[00:15.490] The captain won't be listening
[00:19.490] To what's been said
[00:28.490] He feels that there's a good chance
[00:34.490] That we have been misled
[00:41.490] And so the captain's planning
[00:46.490] To steam ahead
[00:54.490] What can we do, what can we do
[01:01.490] What can we do to stop this foolish plan going through
[01:07.490] What can we do, what can we do
[01:13.490] This man is bound to lose his ship and his crew
[01:28.490] Despite repeated warnings
[01:34.490] From those who ought to know
[01:42.490] Well, he's got his own agenda
[01:46.490] And so he'll go
[01:54.490] Those who shout the loudest
[01:58.490] May not always be the smartest
[02:01.490] But they have their proudest moments
[02:04.490] Right before they fall
[02:08.490] Red sky in the morning
[02:11.490] Doesn't ever seem to faze him
[02:15.490] But a sailor's warning signal
[02:17.490] Should concern us all
[02:40.490] How can we stop him
[02:43.490] Grab the keys and lock him up
[02:46.490] If we can do it
[02:47.490] We can save the day
[02:51.490] The engineer lives with his wife and daughter Janet
[02:55.490] But he misses them so
[03:01.490] Although he's working with the best crew on the planet
[03:06.490] They never want him to go
[03:10.490] He had a premonition
[03:14.490] He senses something's wrong
[03:15.490] And by his own admission
[03:19.490] He knew it all along
[03:21.490] The captain's crazy but he doesn't let them know it
[03:25.490] He'll take us with him if we don't do something soon to slow him
[03:36.490] How can we stop him
[03:38.490] Grab the keys and lock him up
[03:42.490] If we can do it
[03:44.490] We can save the day
[04:07.490] Below decks the engineer cries
[04:09.490] The captain's gonna leave us when the temperatures rise
[04:11.490] The needle's going up, the engine's gonna blow
[04:13.490] And we are gonna be left down below
[04:18.490] Down below
[04:42.490] Yes we can do it
[04:44.490] Yeah, we can do it now
[04:46.490] Yes we can do it
[05:03.490] Yes we can do it
[05:05.490] Yeah, we can do it now
[05:07.490] Yes we can do it
[05:09.490] Yeah, we can do it now
[05:11.490] Yes we can do it
[05:13.490] Yeah, we can do it now
[05:16.490] Oh yeah
[05:20.490] If life would work out the way you plan it
[05:23.490]
[05:27.490] Sometimes you might have to battle through it
[05:30.490] But that's the way you learn how you've got to do it
[05:36.490] Yes we can do it whoa, whoa
[05:38.490] Yes we can do it whoa, whoa
[05:40.490] Yes we can do it whoa, whoa
[05:43.490] Yes we can do it whoa, whoa
[05:54.490] Despite repeated warnings
[06:00.490] Of dangers up ahead
[06:07.490] Well the captain wasn't listening
[06:11.490] To what was said
[06:18.490] So we went to the captain
[06:23.490] And we told him to turn around
[06:26.490] But he laughs in our faces
[06:29.490] Says that we are mistaken
[06:32.490] So we gather around him
[06:35.490] Now the ropes that have bound him
[06:39.490] Prove that he should have listened
[06:42.490] To the will of the people
[06:45.490] It's the will of the people
[06:47.490] It's the will of the people
