Caribbean sunrise
|
on the sea lighting rays
|
on the red horizon
|
ships appear with sails that seem to blaze
|
forty fearless outlaws
|
always ready to fight
|
they want gold and women
|
and a bottle of Jamaican rum each night
|
|
Try, try to flee
|
when you see
|
the flag of terror flying over you
|
Peaked grapnels crash
|
through your ship
|
they attack out of the blue
|
|
Skull and crossbones, blood in sight
|
burning sails light up the night
|
skull and crossbones, piracy
|
they're the tigers of the sea
|
|
Greed for pearls and diamonds
|
they are hellbent for gold
|
their notorious symbol
|
makes every decent sailors'blool run cold
|
like the mighty eagle
|
diving down on the lamb
|
pirates don't give mercy
|
when they fight and get the upper hand
|
|
Cold, blood-stained steel
|
can you feel
|
the boarding-axe being pressed against your chest
|
don't hesitate
|
fight don't wait
|
'till the bogy seals your fate
|
|
Skull and crossbones...
