Pirates :
I sent off for the economy pack,
They sent the super deluxe pack.
But no i'm not complaining,
No, no 'cos it's not raining
Today.
Friday morning I've got so much to do.
I see a man about a thing,
But its not for me, it's all for you.
And i swear i didn't see the danger ship.
Where sea meets the sky,
And the sky meets the sea.
But you take me home,
And we missed my road,
So we'll have to take the long way round.
And you shot me in the back,
When i was walking away.
Girl, y'know that's not fair play.
So i left my instructions on the side,
And this is what they say:
I come in six, easy to assemble,
Pieces. No glue needed 'cos i've got some self adhesive
On my head and my hands and feet.
You wanna cut across the dotted line,
And we're complete.
La, la, la, la, la, low.
La, la, la, la, la, low.
La, la, la, la, la, low.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Blasted boats were used to sail away.
To mashed potato island where the trees are made of broccoli.
And i swear i didn't see the danger ship,
Where the sea meets the sky,
And the sky meets the sea.
But the pirates came and made me walk their plank,
They tied cannonballs to my feet to made sure that i'd sank.
But the sharks were being friendly that day,
They chewed my hat,
Chewed my jeans,
And then they chewed my chain.
So i could get away.
And say:
I come in six, easy to assemble,
Pieces. No glue needed 'cos i've got some self adhesive
On my head and my hands and feet. (All around my hands and feet.)
You wanna cut across the dotted line.
You wanna cut across the dotted line.
You wanna cut across the dotted line.
You wanna cut across the dotted line.
You wanna cut across the dotted line.
And we're complete.
And we're complete.
And we're comple-
Yeah, yeah.
