When I was a pirate
I went around the world
For my country's glory
And to earn a little gold
Now I have it made
Now they call me a Lord
And I won't hesitate
To convict any pirate in court
You know to win the game
You need to bend the rules
For it's plain to see
That they were made for fools
But if you get caught
You'll be severely dead
'Cause power at the top
Simply can never be shared
I'll erase the history
To make me look pristine
I'll silence all the witnesses
To anything obscene
When I was a pirate
I went around the world
For my country's glory
And to earn a little gold
Now I have it made
Now they call me a Lord
And I won't hesitate
To convict any pirate in court
