Pirates – Entertainment For The Braindead

Don’t you see my eye-patch and the parrot on my shoulder,
Don’t you see the broadsword on my belt,
I don’t plan on staying in this bay,
Gonna take what I need and sail away,
I hear that’s what pirates do,

[Chorus 1]

My ship doesn’t need no anchor,
My crew doesn’t need no rest,
My life doesn’t need no other,
There’s a rock inside my chest.

Don’t you see my peg-leg and the tattoos on my shoulder,
It’s proof that I can’t be your friend,
You should keep shady folks like me at bay,
I’m gonna take what I need and sail away,
Cos that’s what pirates do.

[Chorus2]

I don’t need no hidden treasures,
I don’t need no gems and gold,
If you cut apart my rib cage, what you’ll find is rough and cold,

[Chorus 1]

Hey hey hey ho! (x7)
