Ye Banished Privateers

It Matters Not

Well hi there lad, so wishes you, to join our godforsaken crew?
I wonder what dark deeds you did, to leave behind that wife and kid…

Mine is a tale of death and grief, I thought I caught a burglar-thief
When I'd been out to have a glass, and found in bed a strangers arse.
I grabbed me pot. I smashed his head, and there beneath him in me bed,
Me pretty love, me wife Marlene. – 'You killed the taxman Ted' She screamed!

Well all of that is past and gone, it matters not now what you've done.
But next time clean your pot ahead, so you don't get piss in bed.

Invested had for many years, a jewish friend and I in shares.
Now his daughter was a bride to be, and for the wedding he sent me.
To sell our shares and to make sure, her chastity was well secure
But her nanny had me drunk and I then craved for jewish cherry-pie…

Well all of that is past and gone, it matters not now what I've done.
But I in bed the lassie laid, and her Nanny a fortune made

You see that man there on the deck, he killed a priest for a gambling debts
Then donned the robes upon his neck, and went to church to tithe collect.

To pay his debt, had come the time, he bet and lost his every dime.
So now he preaches for our lot, that steal and gamble, thou shall not.

Well all of that is past and gone, it matters not now what he's done.
But when his drunk he screams and moans – lets roll them lucky bones!

At worst of all our captain is, she used to be a noble miss.
Rich in beauty, gold and health, she lived a life of joy and wealth.
Meant to wed the Prince of Wales, she ran away and set her sails,
Better then to flee from land, than to merry a bloody Englishman!

Well all of that is past and gone, it matters not now what she's done.
She's sailed the seven seas for years, and the limy's her name fear.

Well all of that is past and gone, it matters not now what we've done.
You've past the point of no return, and the pirate trade shall learn.
And the pirate trade shall learn.
And the pirate trade shall learn.
