We're the Pilgrim Fathers
You may have heard rather
A lot 'bout our notions
Crossing the ocean
On the good ship Mayflower
Though it's true our journey
Turned into quite a commotion

People report that we sported, these hats
But that's not true, I mean, would you?
Anyway, the main thing to say
We began the USA
Our little band of religion fans
From the East Midlands

We all believed slowly
That england was becoming less holy
So set off for holland 'cus there we had friends
But in the end, seemed the netherlands
Would never be the land, we'd planned

Couldn't stand to remain, on that terrain
So again, we rearranged
To start a new nation with our congregation
A new and calmer life took a farmer, and a builder and his wife
And a cleric-ah to find America

Oh, it's a new world
It wasn't new to the natives
Still we'd thought we'd claim it
Yeah, it's the new world

I still remember, 9th of November
The year 1620 and we saw plenty of land
We thanked God, when we found ground
I kept calm but it didn't go as planned!

Couldn't land on the sand
A month later, though
We made it! New Plymouth, man
We claimed it. The natives said 'not'
But ran when we shot

Move there, it proved, yeah
That life would be though
'Cus we didn't have enough
Of the right stuff
Did you know had no seeds we could grow
Although william mullins had stacked
126 Pairs of shoes in his pack
Now that's whack

A fishing rod, a plough
A pig, or a cow
Would've been a much better idea
But now there's no food for us to eat
Does this mean that we'll meet, with de'feat?

No fun in the new world
I'm glad we've arrived here
But will we survive here?
Yeah, in the new world

People were staving
Our numbers halving
When the winter winds blew
Even fewer liver through
It wasn't pretty in our new city
But the natives took pitty even though
They didn't have to

Man called Squanto
Showed us how to grow maize
Catch eel for a meal
Build shelter in the bays
Tribe gave us a feast
Our starvation ceased!
In 1621, what they had done
Turned us back from the dead
To the living, and to this day
Thats why we have thanks-giving

In Massachusetts built a colony, it's true
They say modern America was founded by our crew
It's a new world
But we can't call it England
Let's call it new England
Yeah, it's a New World

My home was in Plymouth
Let's call it New Plymouth
I got an idea, let's call this New Hampshire
Wait I'm from Newcastle
Can we call it New Newcastle?
Nah
It's a new world
