We the Pirates

[Ape]

Look at all the people bow
glad we can be pirates now
see our flag tainting the sky
skull and crossbones in your eyes

All the people are afraid
fear the pirates will invade
see the ship and run away
as our soldiers hit the bay

We don't care who has to die
we don't care how much you cry
we the pirates, hard as stone
taking everything you own

Now the pirates celebrate
drinking rum and feeling great
blinded by our victory
a dirty scar on history

We didn't see the hidden rock
intoxication caused no shock
now the ship begins to sink
not as perfect as we think

The captain, he rules us all
wooden legs make him look tall
Mr. Captain cannot lie
so he doesn't even try

Now we see our own mistakes
now we feel like dirty snakes
we call for help but no one will
because we are the ones that kill

The pirates try to patch the holes
it only makes them look like fools
the world watches and laughs out loud
making jokes as pirates drowned





Still want to add more to it, but meh.

And no, its not really supposed to be about pirates.

I get what it's about, Ape.

Genius as usual.

[Aiden]

[piñata]

It's about the war in Iraq.

[Aiden]

[Belgarath]

Heh, sorry, I didn't know it wasn't about pirates either Aiden >_>

[Aiden]

lol yay! I'm not the only one that doesn't see past words! hehe, jk!

[piñata]

It took me until like the fifth or sixth verse to figure it out. I'm not any smarter for having figured it out, I'm just more prone to read that kind of thing into something being as anti-Bush as I am.

[Aiden]

lol, and I don't understand politics very well, so I don't look at things that way most of the time.
