Pirates life aint what it seems

(Shanty) (Verse 1) Avast, ye landlubbers, lend me your ear! Tales of the high seas, I bring you right here! We sing of adventure, a life wild and bold, But the truth be different, than stories of old! (Chorus) Heave ho, me hearties, yo ho and a roar! A pirate's life's not what it seems anymore! No silken sheets, nor feather down bed, Just hammocks a swayin', and bumps on your head! (Verse 2) We fight and we plunder, with cutlass and might, But hunger and thirst, they plague us all night. The food turns to mold, the water runs thin, But a pirate's delight, is a good swig of gin! (Chorus) Heave ho, me hearties, yo ho and a roar! A pirate's life's not what it seems anymore! No silken sheets, nor feather down bed, Just hammocks a swayin', and bumps on your head! (Opera) (Tenor) Oh, the call of the ocean, the wind in my hair! A pirate's life grand, beyond all compare! (Alto) But wait, my dear tenor, a moment hold fast! The hardships at sea, will surely not last? (Tenor) With treasures untold, and rum flowing free, A pirate I'll be, on the vast rolling sea! (Alto) No baths for a week, and scurvy's cruel bite, Are these not the wages, of a pirate's delight? (Duet) A life of adventure, with danger and fame, But comfort and ease, (Opera) (Tenor) Oh, the call of the ocean, the wind in my hair! A pirate's life grand, beyond all compare! (Alto) But wait, my dear tenor, a moment hold fast! The hardships at sea, will surely not last? (Tenor) With treasures untold, and rum flowing free, A pirate I'll be, on the vast rolling sea! (Alto) No baths for a week, and scurvy's cruel bite, Are these not the wages, of a pirate's delight? (Duet) A life of adventure, with danger and fame, But comfort and ease, a mere fleeting dream! (Shanty) (Chorus) Heave ho, me hearties, yo ho and a roar! A pirate's life's not what it seems anymore! No silken sheets, nor feather down bed, Just hammocks a swayin', and bumps on your head! (Outro) So next time you hear, of a pirate so grand, Remember the hardships, they face on the sand!
