| The night was dark
|
| the seas were rough
|
| the port lay straight ahead
|
| the booze ran out
|
| the men grew tired and this is what they said
|
| «captain if you cannot find a place to set her down»
|
| «then you will be sleeping right along with this vessel in the ground!»
|
| well the jolly roger pulled through and made it to the land,
|
| we disembaked, went into town with vengence in our hand,
|
| the children cried,
|
| the women sighed,
|
| the men just turned their heads,
|
| with a smiled we chated loud and this is what we said
|
| «wohohoho raise them in the air,
|
| knock you up and slap you down,
|
| and never seem to care.
|
| wohohoho another one for me,
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin,
|
| that will set you people free,
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin
|
| that will set you people free.»
|
| with nothing left for us to drink,
|
| the night was winding down,
|
| but still the girls were swaggering,
|
| and still hanging around.
|
| «Oh mister can you tell me,
|
| where i can find a man,
|
| «the only thing that you will find miss,
|
| is the back side of me hand!»
|
| «wohohoho raise them in the air!
|
| knock you up and slap you down,
|
| and never seem to care!
|
| wohohoho another one for me,
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin,
|
| that will set you people free.
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin,
|
| that will set you people free.
|
| wohohoho raise them in the air,
|
| knock you up and slap you down,
|
| and never seem to care.
|
| wohohoho another one for me,
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin,
|
| that will set you people free,
|
| cause we’re the filthy vermin,
|
| that will set you people free!» |
