02. Heavy Metal Pirates
Sailing the seven seas of metal
We thirst for blood, your ship is in our sights Taste a broadside from our cannons of steel Before our cutlasses of metal you shall kneel We are Heavy Metal Pirates We sail across the sky In our battleships of cosmic steel We're the terror up on high We are Heavy Metal Pirates Our cutlasses are true So give us all your treasure Or soon we'll come for you The wind is in our sails, and fate is on our side So raise the Jolly Roger and sail into the night We're warriors of steel upon the Spanish Main No quarter for the poseurs, we'll bring 'em death and pain We are Heavy Metal Pirates We sail across the sky In our battleships of cosmic steel We're the terror up on high We are Heavy Metal Pirates Our cutlasses are true So give us all your treasure Or soon we'll come for you 03. Over The Seas
Many moons ago, in a faraway land
We met an old man with a hook for a hand He showed us a map that lead to treasures untold He said, "I'll give ye the map, if ye give me some gold" For some pieces of eight the deal was done He gave us the map, our quest had begun We gathered our crew and set sail on the waves And we knew we'd be rich by the end of the day Now we're sailing over oceans and seas With a lust for gold, and the power of steel Over the seas, we shall ride Searching for treasure, into the night Over the seas, our quest has begun And we will not stop with the dawn of the sun Through treacherous seas we reached the lost isle And over it's shores we marched for many miles Until we discovered where the treasure did lie With gold coins and jewels gleaming inside Now we're sailing over oceans and seas With a lust for gold, and the power of steel Over the seas, we shall ride Searching for treasure, into the night Over the seas, our quest has begun And we will not stop with the dawn of the sun Over the seas, we shall ride Searching for treasure, into the night Over the seas, our quest is done And we will be home by the dawn of the sun 04. No Quarter

05. Nancy The Tavern Wench
I know of a tavern not far from here
Where you can get some mighty fine beer The company's true and the wenches are pretty It's the greatest damn place in the whole of the city If you're looking for crewmates, you'll sure find 'em there Cutthroats and lowlifes and worse i should dare Ol' Nancy don't care who comes to her inn It's a den of debauchery violence and sin So come take a drink and drown your sorrows And all of our fears will be gone till tomorrow We'll have no regrets and live for the day In Nancy's Harbour Cafe If you're looking to go on a glorious quest There's a man there who knows of an old treasure chest For some pieces of eight an a tankard of ale He'll show you the map and tell you it's tale And then there's Nancy, the lovely barmaiden She may be old but her beauty ain't fading Ol' Nancy don't care who comes to her inn It's a den of debauchery violence and sin So come take a drink and drown your sorrows And all of our fears will be gone till tomorrow We'll have no regrets and live for the day In Nancy's Harbour Cafe 06. Journey Man
I was born in a deep forest,
I wish I could live here all my life. I am made from stones and roots, My home, these woods and roads. All my life I loved this sound, Of the woods all around. Eagles fly where the winds blows free, Journey is my destiny Free, free as a journey man, Feel, heat in the moonlight. Free, free as a journey man, Feel, heat in the moonlight. Ragged trousers, rucksack in my back, Narrow road behind me, I never look back. Long way is in the past, As in front of me, Hunger keeps me going, I don't care where it leads, Fire burns under my feet, Journey men pleasure and destiny. Sky is black, stars shows me the way, Moon whispered how to keep my faith. Free, free as a journey man, Feel, heat in the moonlight. Free, free as a journey man, Feel, heat in the moonlight. |
