The Cruise to Mars

For reasons we may learn, the Royal Caribbean line ordered their Anthem of the Seas on her original itinerary on 7 February, 2016. On the afternoon of Sunday, 8 February 2016, the Anthem encountered the hurricane named Mars, with winds as high as 150 mph. During the following, and often challenging twelve hours, the Captain and crew fought to keep the ship afloat and turned into the wind while fighting the gulf stream current. We were passengers on that voyage, and I wrote this song lyric the night after the storm we steamed back to home port with significant damage. I performed the song for the first time during karaoke even as the ship was re-entering New York Harbor. The lyrics are: Title: Cruise to Mars (Sung to "the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald") The legend comes down from those florida-bound  From their port in northern new jersey The captain, he said, we can beat out the storm Ere the skies of our passage turn gloomy. Well stocked with supplies, it was hubris come live As they left port -- for open waters the passengers, crew and the ship would be chewed when the storm named Mars came a-callin.  The ship was the pride of the caribbean line On a  run to canaveral and nassau. As the big liners go, it was bigger than most with a crew and good captain well seasoned, Five thousand aboard, a vacationing horde when they left for a cruise to adventure. Til past noon  next day,  when the ship's bell rang, could it be an east wind they'd been feelin'? The wind cross the ship made a tattle-tale sound and a wave broke over the sixth deck. And all the crew knew, as the captain did too 'twas a rare winter hurricane formin'. As the day grew late, they steamed into their fate when the tropical gales came slashin'. When storm's teeth came, it was openly plain in the face of a hurricane east wind. Suppertime came, but the galley was wrecked And no way in those rough seas to serve food Yet again to the crew, and the passengers too,  the Captain said, we'll be through in two hours But the captain well knew, he was fighting the wind and the good ship and all were in peril. And later that night as the winds reached their height came the damage to systems internal. Does any one know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours? The sailers all say we'd have made a clear way if we'd had 200 miles more behind us. We could have broke up or we could've capsized; Or even broke deep and took water. All that would have remained were the bodies and names of those lost to the storm winds and waters By four bells, they knew, it was all they could do To tread water and look for a clearing. While burning full steam, fighting failing machines As the crew felt fate's hand a'closin Locked in their staterooms, the passengers knew Few facts, while fear ate at reason And the honor bars freed, with their soda, candy, Pringles and booze a led to most starvin' But the storm finally broke, rewarding the hopes Of the passengers, crew and the captain Morning, bells chimed, and the sun, it did shine And a limited breakfast was servin' The legend lives on from those Florida-bound From the big ship they call "royal's anthem." "the captain," they said, "never gives up his ship when the hurricane Mars came to claim them!"
