Tale of a Pirate
On a ship showing a skull and crossbones
A brutal pirate decides on whom he shall prey
The years have not been easy for ships in these waters
For the pirates
take no prisoners
Gold and silver is what those rogues want
and they get them through fear and sharp swords
So take care when you pass into waters
where pirates hold sway
For they are merciless and strong
They have no sense or concern
for the sanctity of human life
