Lyrics
Broadside
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Just because you are
You are in trouble
Just because you are
Misunderstood
Rise up your flag
And brace yourself for battle
For your own good
Various ideas for improving the world
Are the better-off classes' favorite sport
But if you can't wait for them to decide
Fire a broadside
Just because you are
You are in trouble
Just because you are
Misunderstood
Rise up your flag
And brace yourself for battle
For your own good
The ocean is wide but there's nowhere to hide
And for your freedom you have to fight
And if your heart sinks so will your ship
And there's loot to keep
Just because you are
You are in trouble
Just because you are
Misunderstood
Rise up your flag
And brace yourself for battle
For your own good
