[Intro] Alright, lads Im one of the only people whove heard Edward Kenway rap And lived to tell the tale And now, Im going to tell you exactly what he said He said [Verse 1] These arent the high seas, theyre my seas Its likely, youll find me inciting some maritime crises Plunder all the prizes from the skies to underwater Thunderballing then Im back aboard in time for my tea Tides are dicey, youre dicing with death Like a diver fighting to rise for a breath Im a tycoon, taking lives like a typhoon Hypothesizing that youre probably dying quite soon But, at least, in the meantime, you can enjoy listening to my tune Its an assassin seashanty, so pass the neat brandy And raise a glass to my seafaring vigilantes [Hook] Right, lads Pack your bags And come aboard as we hoist the black flag I said right, lads Pack your bags And come aboard as we hoist the black flag [Verse 2] Look, Im a canny one, scourge of the Seven Seas Sink anyones galleon to murder my enemies Whether hes been stabbed in a back street Or a vast sea attack by the Black Flag fleet Kicking people in the ribs, I leap from ship to ship And clean the deck of crew as if Im sweeping, never miss a bit No need for cruise missiles, I wield dual pistols And rule this world from Kingston to Bristol So, you better make headway for Edward Kenway Or Ill hit you hard enough to send you to next Wednesday I make the hardest seafaring men say Get away from this fellow if you treasure your gems They say that he ranks amongst the most clever Of the gentleman adventurers without measure He spends half his time looking for exotic treasure The other half, lusting for erotic pleasure [Hook] Right, lads Pack your bags And come aboard as we hoist the black flag I said right, lads Pack your bags And come aboard as we hoist the black flag [Outro] From England to Kingston to New Holland Hes a looting, shooting HenryfookingRollins
