Thirteen - President Romana (Original Trock)

I know I said I'd finish up with Season 25 before tackling Thirteen, but despite Series 11's many flaws, I couldn't resist writing this one first! I wrote Twelve's song immediately after Capaldi's first series had aired, so it made sense to do the same with Whittaker's.

The Yorkshire accent is one I've never managed to master, and some of the more closed vowel sounds were quite hard to sing nicely, so sorry about that. But as with 'Twelve', it sounds weird when I sing it without some semblance of an accent, so I gave it a go, and hopefully it will improve in subsequent songs. (It had better; I'm aware that this attempt was terrible.)

I don't know yet whether I'll do more Series 11 songs. In any case, the next one (whenever that might be) should be based on 'Silver Nemesis'.

Lyrics:

I fell like electricity, a spark behind the eyes,
Eyes that look out from a face I no longer recognise,
There's problems needing solving, and work still to be done,
And I know the answer's hanging on the tip of my... tongue?

Salute the past, embrace the new,
Let it pull you closer,
Do the things you're called to do,
You've gotta make the most of
Everything life throws at you,
It won't always go to plan,
If they ask for help, I won't refuse,
I'll fix it, (yeah,) I'll fix it where I can.

Throughout my life in time and space, through everything I've seen,
I've learnt that there's a time and place for us to intervene.
As guardians of history, we're called to stand aside,
But where there's hope of seeing justice done, I'll try.

Salute the past, embrace the new,
Let it pull you closer,
Do the things you're called to do,
You've gotta make the most of
Everything life throws at you,
It won't always go to plan,
If they ask for help, I won't refuse,
I'll fix it, (yeah,) I'll fix it where I can.

Where there's hope,
And where there's love,
There's no reason to give up,
'Til that hope is there no more,
There's something still worth fighting for.

Salute the past, embrace the new,
Let it pull you closer,
Do the things you're called to do,
You've gotta make the most of
Everything life throws at you,
It won't always go to plan,
If they ask for help, I won't refuse,
I'll fix it, (yeah,) I'll fix it where I can.

I'll fix it where I can.
