Default Sink the Bismarck!
The song isn't terribly accurate. The Bismark was neither the biggest nor the most heavily gunned battleship in existence at the time. The Hull was nothing more than an uparmored battlecruiser. While she may have looked OK in stats her heavy armor was poorly arranged because it was added on after her keel had been laid. The decisive blow to the Bismark didn't come from British battleships, it came from a torpedo launched from a torpedo bomber which left the Bismark cruising in circles. When the British fleet caught up to her she couldn't fight back because she couldn't maintain a straight course long rnough to aim and fire her guns.
