Rebellion - Ruling The Waves lyrics

I have been on viking cruises, Taking what they wouldn't give Sacrifice to Njord the master of the waves On which I live Now I found a king to follow, Now I serve the Forked Beard Sven the son of Harald Bluetooth, King of Denmark knows and feared To England – our dragons had to ride To help the beaten Aethelred – the Picts we must fight And many – a hero died that day I raged with bloodlust And I cut their lives away And so we beat them on a field Of gore and bone But there is a price to pay, The English should have known Aethelred, oh Aethelred – Your kingdom now is gone The king of Denmark takes your crows, oh you should have known The northern sea he rules, Denmark and England he unites The norsemen rule the waves and king Sven holds all the might The Forked Beard he rules And like the devil we will fight We rule the waves. Fear the vikings pride Hey, hey – we are ruling the waves... We burn the churches and the cross The serpents of the crucified, Their lives are at a loss Sven prays to Odin and to Thor The power of the ancient gods Who dwelt here long before And so we hunt those Who have burnt the oak trees down The heathen roots run deep The ancient gods are still around Crucified, oh crucified, You should have known Your time has not yet come And so we burn your houses down The northern sea he rules, Denmark and England he unites The norsemen rule the waves And king Sven holds all the might The Forked Beard he rules And like the devil we will fight We rule the waves. Fear the vikings pride Hey, hey – we are ruling the waves...
