At age 19 i was kidnapped by turkish pirates |
|
Mediterranean thugs |
|
After some torture they considered me their mascot |
|
Cypriotic good luck |
|
I had to taste the deck and many other things |
|
I had to pay the piper with my wedding ring |
|
And i would never see my family again |
|
By 25 i was respected as an equal |
|
My art was a knife |
|
On countless raids i was the first one up the lanyard |
|
Yeah i was seeking a fight |
|
There is no time to pray |
|
And there's no time to beg |
|
And then it's off with an arm |
|
Or it's off with a leg |
|
And if i spare your life |
|
It's because the tide is leaving |
|
Oh yeah |
|
By 31 i was the captain of a galleon |
|
I was poseidon's new son |
|
The coast of montenegro was my favorite target |
|
It was ever so fun |
|
We had no wooden legs |
|
Or steel hooks |
|
We had no black eye patches |
|
Or a starving cook |
|
We were just killers with the cold eyes of a sailor |
|
Yeah we were killers with the cold eyes of a sailor |
