A lieutenant (abbreviated Lt, LT, Lieut and LEUT) is a junior commissioned officer in many nations' armed forces. Typically, the rank of lieutenant in naval usage, while still a junior officer rank, is senior to the army rank. It is also used in fire services, emergency medical services, security services and police forces as a rank.
Lieutenant may also appear as part of a title used in various other organizations with a codified command structure. It often designates someone who is "second-in-command," and as such, may precede the name of the rank directly above it. For example, a "lieutenant master" is likely to be second-in-command to the "master" in an organization utilizing both such ranks. Notable uses include lieutenant governor in various governments, and Quebec lieutenant in Canadian politics.
The word lieutenant derives from French; the lieu meaning "in place" as in a position (cf. in lieu of); and tenant meaning "holding" as in "holding a position"; thus a "lieutenant" is somebody who holds a position in the absence of his or her superior (compare the Latin locum tenens). Similar words in other languages include the Arabic mulāzim (Arabic: ملازم), meaning "holding a place", and the Hebrew word segen (Hebrew: סגן), meaning "deputy" or "second to".

Plot
Trouble is brewing in the banana republic of Bianco for both His Excellency, El Presidente, and the British Consul, Brant. Rebels, led by Diego De Costa, the trusted "Minister of the Marines and the Customs" and Lieutenant Enricquo, the gunnery officer of the small republic's one battleship, have taken over the battleship, and the town. Most of the British citizens have taken refuge at the Consulate or have been evacuated to the small cruiser in Bianco's port, the "H. M. S. Audacious." But there are two major issues; the Consul's daughter, Pamela, and Canadian Lieutenant Bill Armstrong have been kidnapped by the rebels and now held hostage on the battleship "El Mirante," and El Presidente was visiting the consulate when the war broke out and is now under the protective custody of the British Empire. De Costa informs the "Audacious" commander, Captain Markham, that if El Presidete is not turned over to the rebels in six hours, the 15-inch guns of the battleship will blow the Consulate itself to bits. Markham, who can not fire first as the aggressor and is out-gunned anyway, is, with only his six-inch guns, in a bit of a sticky-wicket mess. Or, in the words of El Presidente: "Death she as light as one leetle feather...Duty she as heavy...."

A Drama of the Captain of a Destroyer who put DUTY BEFORE ALL!
Yo Yo Yo
Straight from the shed
With a shovel in my hand
My bible's a rifle you gotta understand (yeah)
That the streets need a weapon
And out here, the sheep need a shepard
So as long as I'm here you won't witness evil
I'm a rhyme to a sky full of christmas beetles
Where, mind power cracks the code
My welcome mat to a happy home
Rattlin bones and a broken compass
Watch me use those bones as drumsticks
Bam Bam it's Bedrock baby
Ringin the alarm that we set off daily
Gone with the wind when I'm out the sunroof
I sleep on the gas in a muddy pair of ugboots
In the back is my lucky dingo
And he attacks like a punch from Kimbo
Slice, dice scratch my lyrics
And see my DJ? Yeah that's my lizard
Still there when the ship is sinking
Cause we're the kings of wishful thinking
In a house that lays in my head and the
Sun was money there were days that I spent
With my face to the fence, speechless,
Until I made you my friend
That's when your mates came by,
And you said listen to this and you did
With headphones on in a zone unknown now I'm glad you know where I live (right here)
Together we stand, divided we fall
To play this game keep your eyes on the ball
Live for the minute, die for the culture
See through the dark when the violet is ultra
Smoke don't rise
Fuel don't burn
Sun don't shine no more
Late one night, sorrow come round
Scratching at my door
But I cut my hands
And break my back
Draggin' this bag of stones
Till they bury me down, beneath the ground
With the dust and rattlin'
I just daydream from the front seat of a humvee
Press eject then bungee to jumanji
To the place where the rhino's rumble
Spread far like the hydro hustle
In the jungle fall with chainsaws
Sell fate to walk though maze walls
Free thinkers, free talkers
Waltz on water like sea walkers
Rise up, levitate like this
Till times up, celebrate life's gifts
Paint pop culture like Warhol
With the words that I churn though my portal
An electric, lightning bolt sky
Dive inside my kaliedoscope eyes
The vision is a sight to see
There should'nt be a place on earth where life is cheap
Space pirate, cat with golden wings
Raise your sail, catch your solar wind
I just ride away have a story,
Cats cook in their hide-away labratories
Let it simmer, bubble and slow
Beers in the bin, Blood in the bowl
Never... My office desktop is... and...
My band spans the high and low frequencies
Love life and it's ideo syncrocies
Simply called a rap with friends
Another artistic awesome accident
This is for you, stand in the rain with a
Vista view the champion change
Until it's late and the canvas is stained
When the paints sprayed and the canisters drained
Smoke don't rise
Fuel don't burn
Sun don't shine no more
Late one night, sorrow come round
Scratching at my door
But I cut my hands
And break my back
Draggin' this bag of stones
Till they bury me down, beneath the ground
Try an test me now, watch out
Listen you ain't a thing to me,
You ain't exactly yourself.
Come here and get shut down
Listen I ain't a fool to you, to me, to anyone else
She says I sleep with me tonight,
I won't say a thing, I can't even tell a lie
Lady in white resist me your right.
I'm in love with you, your the spark in my life
So treat me like your own kind.
I've been trying to fight my mind against what's real.
And I can see the road sign saying telling me to stop, I'm searching through the hills.
What's that to say I'm a real chump losing it.
That's okay cause I know your wrong.
Either way I will be ten times better than.
Wave your hands, say good bye so long.
Watch who your talking to [x4]
Surprise, give me a kiss and hold me tight.
Just like old times, just a couple lines
My you and I are so a like, Tingling in the body, sparkle in the eye, I may not be a saint but I'm sexy.
I put you in a daze cause I'm pretty. and I should see the sun but you never let me.
Line after line, sometimes to many.
Who am I to blame?
I point the finger at a lady I can't tame.
She's got me handcuffed, locked up, and chained.
And the addiction is the name of the game.
