It wasn’t that long ago
That I was just like you
I stood up straight
Walking on two legs
You know, human
They called me Boot beard
Aye, I was even the captain
Of me own ship
A grand ship
Lady Hades
Ahh, how grand she wers
I sailed the 7 seas
On me lady
Me mates
At my command
Tis only pride tempted
Me into exploring
The Island Of Cursed Dogs
As a young lad I was told
To stay away.
Now the fearless captain
Is I
I sail where I please.
Me and those
Bloody scallywags,
Yellow to the bone
Walked the sands
Of Cursed Dogs
And fell into
A deep sleep
Now I stands here
Before you today
Let this be a warning
To you lads...
If your Ma and Pa
Tells you to keep away
From something
You bloody well better do it!
