Pedals on Our Pirate Ships Lyrics

Yo, ho, ho
We're taking back the streets
There's pedals on our pirate ships
There's fire in our feet

Yo, ho, ho!
Why are we taking our sweet time?
Let's do it all this summer
When only old ghosts haunt these dives

'Cause we're taking it back
We're taking it back

Yo, ho, ho!
We're taking back what's ours
We'll stencil revolution
We'll bleed from our guitars

Yo, ho, ho!
We're taking back the streets
We'll take this college town
And resurrect our sweet city

'Cause we're taking it back
We're taking it back
Yargh!

The weather's looking rough
And no one likes to ride their bike in the rain
But if we're all together
And we're all soaking wet
So what? So what? It could be great

So yo, ho, ho!
It's a pirate's life for me
My friends and I supply a wage in new camaraderie
We're all in this together
At least we have been for a while
And these friends of mine, it seems
Well, quittin' ain't their style

So we're taking it back
We're taking it back
We're taking it back

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
