Pirate/Quotes
Fly our flag, we teach them fear
Under Jolly Roger!
Capture them, the end is near
Firing guns they shall burn
Surrender or fight there's no return—Under Jolly Roger by Running Wild
Oh some are fond of red wine, and some are fond of white,
Of the old bold mate of Henry Morgan.
And some are all for dancing by the pale moonlight:
But rum alone's the tipple, and the heart's delight—John Masefield "Captain Stratton's Fancy"
Terrorizing suckers on the seven seas
And I shot those suckers and I'll shoot the rest
And if you've got beef - you'll get capped in the knees
We got sixteen men on a dead man's chest—The Beastie Boys, "Rhymin' and Stealin'"
He was the mildest-manner'd man that ever scuttled ship or cut a throat.
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey
We are wolves of the sea.
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show
Jolly Rogers, go—Alestorm, Wolves of the Sea.
They murder coldly and detachedly
And wave a toe as they go down.
Whatever comes across their path
They throttle gullets as relaxedly
As fling a rope up to the mast.
At wakes they fall upon the liquor
Then stagger overboard and drown
While the remainder give a snigger—Bertolt Brecht, Ballad of the Pirates
Yar, har, fiddle-de-dee
Being a Pirate is all right to be
Do what you want 'cause a Pirate is free
You are a Pirate!
And those buccaneers drown their sins in rum
A five, six, seven, eight
The Devil himself would have to call 'em scum
Every man a board would've killed his mate
For a bag of guineas or a piece of eight
A piece of eight
A piece of eight—Muppet Treasure Island, Shiver My Timbers
We are the ones that mastered the oceans
We are the ones that rule the seas
Never surrender and always fight on
We are the ones that charge at dawn—Buccaneers by Angeli di Pietra
