The Pirates of Rock and Roll

We were rowing on a row boat, sailing the sea
Not a care in the world, just Aaron and me
West by the sunset we saw a big ship
I started to panic, Aaron said, "Get a grip!"
But... it's a pirate ship! Uh oh!

Black flags waving, and as they got closer
We saw hooks for hands and parrots on their shoulders
It's the meanest bunch of peg-legs that you ever could meet
The captain comes out, he's got a shiny bright red electric guitar
With a seaweed strap and a whammy bar

And they sing
We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll
They know our names wherever tales are told
We came to party, we don't want your gold
No... we've got soul!
We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll

They throw down a rope and pull us to the ship
They've got a chest full of sodas and some guacamole dip
The captain comes over and says "Hey, wanna jam?
Every matey on this boat is a member of the band
There's no auditions, just come as you are
Jess, there's the keyboard, Aaron, take guitars
We've got bass and drums and saxophone
And you know me, I've got my shiny bright red electric guitar
So join me now!"
Hardy-har-har!

We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll
They know our names wherever tales are told
We came to party, we don't want your gold
No... we've got soul!
We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll

Hey Jess, did you hear the one about the pirate who bought three boats in one day?
No, I haven't heard that one
Yeah, they were having a huge sail!
Oh wait wait wait, I got one, what's a pirate's favorite treat?
What?
Pirate ship cookies!

We came for the party
We came for the party
We came for the party
We came for the party!

We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll
They know our names wherever tales are told
We came to party, we don't want your gold
No... we've got soul!
We are the Pirates of Rock and Roll
