At the time of writing this post, Evergreen’s Ever Given cargo ship is still stuck in the Suez Canal. I was inspired by this incident to write a song about it.
Sail my ship on the Seven Seas
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Ship gets stuck. Trade falls to its knees.
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Help me out now, won’t you please?
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Things are always weird when you’re Taiwanese
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Nothing in Life is Ever Given
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Escape from Egypt without any Leaven
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!Get me out of Hell and into Heaven
Stuck in the Suez! Stuck in the Suez!
