wake island - oscar brand lyrics

[verse 1]
december the seventh we heard about pearl
we knew we’d be next on the list
the men of our corps, four fifty, no more
all swore to the death to resist

[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps
[verse 2]
cut off from supplies with no hope of aid
wе sighted the first j*panesе
with thousands of troops and a task force of ships
they thought they would take us with ease

[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps

[verse 3]
they sent in their subs, their ships and their planes
they sh*lled us by day and by night
surrender they said, we laughed at their threats
we’re only beginning to fight

[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps

[verse 4]
our four hundred fifty cost six thousand j*ps
our fighters downed twenty*eight planes
we sank two destroyers and one submarine
six others got sh*lled for their pains
[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps

[verse 5]
our plan was to fight to the very last man
but deveraux gave this command
there’s a thousand civilians i can’t sacrifice
we’ll have to surrender our band

[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps

[verse 6]
yes, we lay down our arms on the twenty*third day
the j*ps cheered the news of defeat
but they could not believe a few crummy marines
had stopped the whole j*panese fleet

[chorus]
wake island (wake island), wake island (wake island)
it’s not even marked on the maps
our corps raised her name to honor and fame
when we stopped the advance of the j*ps
