THE FALL OF THE AIRSHIP SOLITARIA

I’M A MAN –MACHINE A TRANSHUMAN CONTRAPTION
I’M THE MASTER OF THE ENGINE ROOM YOU CAN CALL ME BIG MACHINE
I AM THE LEGENDARY CONVERTED PRINCESS
I’M THE LADY OF THE HOUSE BUT JUST CALL ME PRINCESS
I FLY THIS FALLING AIRSHIP AND THAT’S MY GODDAMN JOB
IF YOU LIKE THE SMELL OF DANGER MY NAME IS COMMANDER BOB

OVER THE CLOUDS OF RIJSEL IN EIGHTEEN SEVENTY ONE
AN AIRSHIP IN DISTRESS IS SPOTTED AND OUR CHANCES NEXT TO NONE
A SQUAD OF RED BARONS FLY IN ICE FOG IN THE NORTH OF FRANCE
EMERGENCY STEPS MUST BE TAKEN ACCORDING TO THE CIRCUMSTANCE
IT’S THE FALL OF THE AIRSHIP SOLITARIA (X2)

THE AIRSHIP HAS CIRCLED FOR AGES WAITING FOR A SUNNY SPELL
WE’VE JETTISONED THE CARGO AND FISH MUST BE DRUNK AS HELL
THE STORM GLASS EXPLODES UNDER PRESSURE
AND OUR BALANCE IS ON THE RUN
THE SITUATION’S GETTING CRITICAL AND THIS BATTLE JUST CANNOT BE WON
IT’S THE FALL OF THE AIRSHIP SOLITARIA (X2)

CAUGHT IN THIS CLASH OF EMPIRES WE’RE TRYING TO SAVE OUR SKIN
THE AIRSHIP SLOWLY CRASHES AND THE PRUSSIANS ARE CLOSING IN
A FLIGHT TO REMEMBER DON’T YOU THINK?
THE COMMANDER TELLS THE PASSENGERS
AS THE CREW DISAPPEARS IN THE DIN / TOWARDS A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE
IT’S THE FALL OF THE AIRSHIP SOLITARIA (X2)
