Life of a Pirate

Ahoy, ahoy, let's sail with joy 

Today we scan the horizon 

Looking for some treasure island 

But all we see is the never endless sea 

With waves that take us on a roller coaster ride 

That might throw us overboard for the shark to have a bite. 

The wind is our friend, taking us to where we belong 

As we set our sails, we catch the wind 

The winds of change on the deck

What's below doesn't catch the attention of many

As we take creaking steps to the ship's abyss 

The smell of rotten flesh collides with a whiff of the salted air 

And hits us hard like the tail of a whale 

Any stronger, it could've thrown us off the deck 

We're greeted by pirates, captives from another ship 

While they were busy looting, they didn't see us shooting 

Greed distracted them and sent them right to where we wanted them to be 

The belly of the beast. 

While they sit there being digested 

Their lives are being looted 

By the flesh-eating bugs oozing from their wooden legs. 

Walk the plank.

Aye, aye!
