Captain Morgan's Revenge

Countless years ago while lost in barren seas,
There whispered murmurs of a bloody mutiny.
We took up arms and slain the officers of rank,
And with swords drawn made the captain walk the plank.

And as he fell down to the depths,
He swore a deadly curse.
“As sure as hell’s my final fate,
You’ll all soon die, or worse”
Now as we stand before the gallows,
Waiting for the end.
I’ll say these final words my friend…

At sunrise we’ll all dance the hempen jig,
So raise up your pint of rum and take another swig.
The curse of Captain Morgan has led us to this fate,
So have no fear, and don’t look back, the afterlife awaits.

We returned to port with sorrow in our chests,
An evil shadow followed us on every quest.
Never to feel joy again was our fate,
Only misery and death, fear and burning hate.

We broke the law, betrayed the code,
Now time is running out.
An unforgivable offence,
Of that there is no doubt.
Now as we stand before the gallows,
Waiting for the end.
I’ll say these final words my friend…

At sunrise we’ll all dance the hempen jig,
So raise up your pint of rum and take another swig.
The curse of Captain Morgan has led us to this fate,
So have no fear, and don’t look back, the afterlife awaits.

“Many years have passed now,
Yet the curse still lives on.
And now we rot in a black prison cell,
Waiting for our true calling in hell”

But for the lives we leave behind,
Don’t shed a tear, don’t cry.
The only way to break this curse,
Is for us all to die.
Now as we stand before the gallows,
Waiting for the end.
I’ll say these final words my friend…

At sunrise we’ll all dance the hempen jig,
So raise up your pint of rum and take another swig.
The curse of Captain Morgan has led us to this fate,
So have no fear, and don’t look back, the afterlife awaits.

At sunrise we’ll all dance the hempen jig,
