歌詞 Despite Repeated Warnings Paul McCartney

Despite repeated warnings Of dangers up ahead The captain won't be listening To what's been said He feels that there's a good chance That we have been misled And so the captain's planning To steam ahead What can we do, what can we do What can we do to stop this foolish plan going through? What can we do, what can we do, what can we do? This man is bound to lose his ship and his crew Despite repeated warnings From those who ought to know Well, he's got his own agenda And so he'll go (What can we do?) Those who shout the loudest (What can we do?) May not always be the smartest (What can we do?) But they have their proudest moments right before they fall (What can we do?) Red sky in the morning (What can we do?) Doesn't ever seem to phase him (What can we do?) But a sailor's warning signal should concern us all How can we stop him? Grab the keys and lock him up If we can do it We can save the day The engineer lives with his wife and daughter, Janet But he misses them so Although he's working with the best crew on the planet (The best crew on the planet) They never want him to go He had a premonition He senses something's wrong And by his own admission He knew it all along The captain's crazy But he doesn't let them know it He'll take us with him If we don't do something soon to slow him How can we stop him? Grab the keys and lock him up If we can do it We can save the day Below decks, the engineer cries The captain's gonna leave us when the temperatures rise The needle's going up, the engine's gonna blow And we are gonna be left down below, down below Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Yes, we can do it Yeah, we can do it now Oh yeah If life would work out the way you plan it That'd be so fine for the wife and Janet Sometimes, you might have to battle through it But that's the way you learn how you've got to do it Yes, we can do it, whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it, whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it, whoa, whoa Yes, we can do it, whoa, whoa Despite repeated warnings Of dangers up ahead Well, the captain wasn't listening To what was said (What can we do?) Those that shout the loudest) So we went to the captain (What can we do?) May not always be the smartest) And we told him to turn around (What can we do?) But they have their proudest moments) But he laughs in our faces (Right before they fall) Says that we are mistaken (What can we do?) Red sky in the morning) So we gather around him (What can we do?) Doesn't ever seem to phase him) Now the ropes that have bound him (What can we do?) But a sailor's warning signal) Prove that he should have listened (Should concern us all) To the will of the people It's the will of the people It's the will of the people
