Pirate operator,
There’s none greater,
Blackbeard’s my name,
Stealing’s my game!
It’s no surprise I cause a scare,
I keep lit tapers in my hair,
Now take me to your loot,
Ahem, excuse me.
I don’t need your silver and gold,
Cause they’re far too heavy in my hold,
Give me cumin, nutmeg and all of your wine,
Anything I can sell will do fine.
Look out cause here we come,
Sailing in the hot sun,
Flag has got a skull on, see.
Here’s what my advice is,
Hand over your spices,
Or get cut into slices,
No, I’m serious.
Anne Bonny, Mary Read,
Equal opportunity,
Gonna take your rum,
Fetch a tidy sum.
Secret sales to the colonies,
If you want tea it’s me you see,
But don’t tell the Governor.
We may be bad but in case of dispute,
Pirates code means you’ll get your fair loot.
And when we’re caught, we’ll claim pregnancy,
It’s what’s known as pleading the belly.
Sail the Caribbean,
Underneath the hot sun,
Ship with thirty-six guns.
Stealing from everyone,
Then sell it back to them,
Spend it on having fun, yeah!
We’re a floating shop,
Sell at every stop,
Be it sugar or spice,
All competitively priced.
A pirate’s life isn’t quite what it seems,
Some have even robbed ships for the Queen.
We’ll scare you just enough so you give us your stuff,
Cause I’d rather keep my cutlass clean,
But we will kill you if we have to!
On the ocean we roam,
Under skull and crossbones,
Galleon is our home.
Stealing is a pleasure,
We don’t bury treasure,
Spend it at our leisure.
Oh, living life on the run,
Underneath the hot sun,
Easer said than done,
Yeah!
Cause there’ll be retribution,
We’ll face prosecution,
And then execution,
Oh yeah!
I forgot about that, not ideal.
