goin' back i swore i wouldn't
but i feel the pull
is it fate is it destiny
or an implanted chip in the back of my skull

i thought i was done with the pirates life
guess i thought wrong
on the bow of the good ship gloria
we'll be singing this song

on the banks of that lonely isle
where i was left to die
a dream of an angel came
she asked me why
why was i marooned
when i could've been the king
i didn't knw what to tell her
i didn't say anything

it's not a life for everyone
this much i understand
if you like creature comforts
if you like your picnics planned
but the pirates life is the one for me
and forever i will stand
with my head held high against the tyrants
who try to take our land

as my ship draw near to the anchor point
i sense that something's off
not a sound for miles around
not single seagull cough
from the depths of the hungry ocean
a fiery mouth appears
and through rain and sleet and hail and wind
all that i can heara
