Come and Be a Pirate Lyrics
Leave behind the law and lawyers
When you leave behind the land—
For the law that rules a pirate
Is you take whate’er you can
So you want to be a pirate?
Well, repeat after me—
I’ll pillage, whore, and plunder
And live the life that’s free
Little boys who listened
When their Mamas said they should
They ain’t the kind o’ pirates
That will do me any good
I want a crew that’s ruthless
Cutthroats, thieves and ghouls
‘Cause we don’t hold tea-parties
And we don’t live by the rules
We sail upon the heavens
In an airship tried and true
It’s a whole new world of treasure
That we’ll find before we’re through
So, if you want to be a pirate
Come on down to the ship
We need a dozen sailors
To replace those lost last trip!
When you leave behind the land—
For the law that rules a pirate
Is you take whate’er you can
Well, repeat after me—
I’ll pillage, whore, and plunder
And live the life that’s free
When their Mamas said they should
They ain’t the kind o’ pirates
That will do me any good
Cutthroats, thieves and ghouls
‘Cause we don’t hold tea-parties
And we don’t live by the rules
In an airship tried and true
It’s a whole new world of treasure
That we’ll find before we’re through
Come on down to the ship
We need a dozen sailors
To replace those lost last trip!
