[Intro]
There are no laws to govern us when we set out to sea
But there's a code that every man must heed
We save our mortal soil and preventing anarchy
To keep us sinners reign of piracy
[Verse 1]
[?] Oh that rotten man he shot me in the back
When we were standing ready to attack
I lost me leg but kept the code and took it all with pride
But from the rusted silver you can't hide
[Chorus]
Sharpen up your blades to Mister Silver
And take to the trade of anarchy
What you take from me you'll have to pay back in full
I own you, I rule you by fear
[Verse 2]
So violent pirates at the feast upon the distant shore
I told the sermon "Remembering for us all!"
Some will call me wicked and a plague upon the world
As though our code should be obeyed as our laws
[Chorus]
Sharpen up your blades to Mister Silver
And take to the trade of anarchy
What you take from me you'll have to pay back in full
I own you, I rule you by fear
[Verse 3]
The codex of pirates and fair and true
Justice will come for you
Don't fuck with Barbecue
I took his leg as he took mine
And then I ran it through
I turn his colored brains and smell the fumes
I served a healthy helping to this traitor to the crew
And since that day my name is Barbecue
[Verse 4]
Living for freedom has it's price
It's full of risks and strife
You can lose a hand, a leg, or even life
But do not be disheartened, you already rolled the dice
And blessed be the man named Christ
[Chorus]
Sharpen up your blades to Mister Silver
And take to the trade of anarchy
What you take from me you'll have to pay back in full
I own you, I rule you by fear
[Outro]
In brotherhood we find a way when clouds fill the skies
To navigate the sky
To navigate this schooner with their lives
Sharpen up your blades to Mister Silver
We own you I rule you, I fear
Damnation for freedom with black sails of fear
We own you we rule you, by fear
We own you I rule you, I fear
