Oh they don't know or care but being a pirate is hard
They won't know about the respect I discard

When I leave the land I've a warm feeling at heart
'Cos a new journey is now about to start

Pirate Song, it's a Pirate Song
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

The sea is the terrain for my kind of person
Here on this ship those landlubbers call burden

But they don't know what they're talking about
'Cos 70 percent's sea, we're no where near drought

All my colleagues, all of them, die later or sooner
But don't laugh, please, 'cos this life is no cartoon-a

Does the captain care; to him it's no big erasure
But one day I'm going from minor to major

Pirate Song, it's a Pirate Song
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Oh they don't care, oh they don't know
They just think our life is a panto show
Is this the middle piece of eight section?
I get an excitement when the mast get's an erection

Once I thought I could trust them, then they dobbed me in
That was their pen-ultimate, unforgettable sin

The next was much much worse, not a bunch of lies
They covered up the truth; was it a big surprise?

Everyone sing the Pirate Song
Sing it till the singings done!!

They taught'cha that torture, turning a blind eye
That wasn't the only turn, it was their's to lie

Burning the candle so much, it's an ongoing fight
To stay up, not fall asleep, all through the night

Pirate Song, it's a Pirate Song
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
