Welcome Aboard (Lyrics: RedRum/Nobeard, Music: Nobeard) Taking to the sails at dawn Ravage the seven seas Yo ho, Yo ho, this Pirates life for me We'll slit your throat; you'll walk the plank The sharks are all you'll see Yo ho, Yo ho, 'cause Pirates we all be Reaching Port Town by dusk The Jolly Roger flying high Caught in a fairwinds sky We've come to rape and pillage - And plunder the village Too the tavern we'll march Alcohol surrounds - The true commodore of the seas Rum and ale, to corrupt our black hearts Through bloodshot eyes we'll claim our prize Wenches and whores and gold galore We'll call this rusty shanty 'home' for but one night, come morn - we'll roam Across the seas, to the horizon's edge Avast ye! Hornswogglin' swashbucklers! Buccaneers of the Spanish Main The scourge of all scallywags Swimming in doubloons - Yet still marooned On some godforsaken island Nothin' left to do but bury in sand Bury our hope - upon Cap'n's demand Treasure in a chest - Marked with an 'X' Sail into the golden sunset In a world of map-drawn lines True paradise defined Yo ho, Yo ho, in this Pirates life of mine

Drink Up 02:28
Drink Up (Lyrics: RedRum, Music: RedRum/Nobeard) Forever again will we hail Upon this nautical hell, we sail Through the moonless nights Across the seas of death, we'll fight Slash of the saber sword Lift the curse and be restored We're pirates! We aim to kill! No prisoners - our code fulfilled Pass the Ale Pass the Rum By nights embrace our bodies numb Drink up me matey's YO HO! YO HO! Drink up me matey's YO HO! Mighty cannon's roar into the sky Burning chainshot - our foes reply The Black One's beard is burning bright A tour of duty of epic might For honor For glory For lore and sacred story

Walk the Plank (Lyrics: Nobeard, Music: Nobeard) Mutiny on the bound Gather the crew around Tie the traitor's hands You'll have no time think As we watch you sink Boots filled with sand Walk the Plank! High Fives! Plank Dives! Treason is the reason That you're gonna die! High Fives! Plank Dives! The depths of the ocean Is where your carcass lies!

Music: RedRum/Nobeard

Dead Men Tell No Lies (Lyrics: RedRum, Music: RedRum/Nobeard) Batten down the hatches men We've been through hell and back again Traitors - Seen 'em come and go No scars, No Gold, No Pride to show The price to pay for mutiny Is somewhat certain death For you to see Dead Men Tell No Lies! Betrayers of the code must know Seeds of vengeance will soon be sowed We'll gather round will all our loot And tie a cannon to your boots Dead Men Tell No Lies!

Music: RedRum, Shiphand Akira-san

“X” Marks the Spot (Lyrics: RedRum/Nobeard, Music: Nobeard) Groundbreaking cartographic course Bottled at the source Myth to map; Word to World The paradigm of space unfurled Nature mirrored for navigation Reject religious implication Change in thought; an evolution Worldwide nautical revolution Now take this paper parched with age With lines that dash across the page Pace your steps across the beach And keep a shovel within your reach We’ve taken our weight in silver and gold Pillaging and looting as part of the code We’ve buried our treasure where old seamen rot Upon our map – “X” marks the spot

Rum Runners 02:10
Music: Nobeard
11.
Upon the Spanish Main (Lyrics: RedRum, Music: Nobeard) Load the guns and heave in sail The pirates of the seas prevail Your royal navy won’t keep us down We’ll burn your ships down to the ground We’ve drawn the maps We’ve set the traps Upon the Spanish Main!

The Bazaar 01:05
Music: Nobeard
13.
Jolly Roger 03:44
Jolly Roger (Lyrics: Rowin’ Joe Po, Music: Rowin' Joe Po) We be the nomads of the sea We fight and pilfer because we are free Sailing through tempests fueled by our greed To obtain thy treasure ‘tis the key Royal Soldiers should beware Seeing our flag flying through the air Swinging aboard to raid your boat Try to stop us and we’ll slit your throat All townsfolk should heed these words Fear the Jolly Roger! Grog and booty, they mean the most When we have them, we love to boast But ale and wenches do come close Land Ahoy! In the crow’s nest I spot the coast

Music: RedRum
15.
Crewed by the Damned (Lyrics: RedRum, Music: Nobeard) Under the curse we sail the seas In this goddamned pirates life we lead Plunder Plunder - Chests of Wonder Buried deep within the sand Pillage Pillage - Raid the Village Fire the cannon's and make a stand We are... Crewed by the Damned! All hopes lost Crewed by the Damned! Moonlight pears through all out fears Exposing bleached white bone Wooden Legs and Emptied Kegs We sail into the black unknown We may never again see sight of land In this pirates tale so grand We are... Crewed by the Damned! All hopes lost Crewed by the Damned!
