David Wise - The pirate king [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Oh, better far to live and die
Under the brave black flag I fly
Than play a sanctimonious part
With a pirate head and a pirate heart
Away to the cheating world go you
Where pirates all are well-to-do;
But I’ll be true to the song I sing
And live and die a Pirate King
For I am a Pirate King!
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Pirate King!
For I am a Pirate King!
You are!
Hurrah for our Pirate King!
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Pirate King
It is!
Hurrah for our Pirate King!
Hurrah for the/our Pirate King!
When I sally forth to seek my prey
I help myself in a royal way
I sink a few more ships, it’s true
Than a well-bred monarch ought to do;
But many a king on a first-class throne
If he wants to call his crown his own
Must manage somehow to get through
More dirty work than ever I do
For I am a Pirate King!
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Pirate King!
For I am a Pirate King!
You are!
Hurrah for the Pirate King!
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Pirate King
It is!
Hurrah for our Pirate King!
Hurrah for the/our Pirate King!
