lyrics

I’m tired of talking
I’m tired of negotiating like a civilised man
I’ve a cutlass in my hand
It’s bare and swift to greet
The naked throat of any lamb that chooses not to bleat
Oh they’re meat

Tell us where the loot is buried

You sail a different pirate ship, one that’s never left the slip
And though the Jolly Roger’s not your flag
The whole world knows your dirty rag
Tell us many mischief makers, make us malcontents all merry
We’re gonna ask you very nicely once
And then we’ll execute and bury

You’d better spend that fatted bonus, awarded under your own onus
Send hired me to stone us, bash us, break us, own us
There’s another ninety-nine behind to bring you to your knees
So would you tell us where the loot is buried, would you kindly tell us please

And if I am a buccaneer, you sir I do declare to be most honestly my mirror
Yes, you sir, lily-livered, you sir, all a-quiver
The very man to make first ape at the zoo
The Indian giver

Tell us where the loot is buried

You sail a different pirate ship, one that’s never left the slip
And though the Jolly Roger’s not your flag
The whole world knows your dirty rag
Tell us where the loot is buried
