Lyrics of The Frigate That Flies by The Pirate Ensemble
verse
First, the Tower of London, arr
The guards won't know what hit it
We swoop right down, and take the crown
And the crown jewels with it
pre-chorus
And when we fly to Paris
All the treasures, I'll be grabbing
The Mona Lisa will look lovely
Hanging in me cabin
chorus
Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
In the stratosphere
chorus
Hey-ho!
We'll be the freighter that plunders
Every one of the world's seven wonders
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?
No one can fight the frigate that flies
verse
Next, we'll roam to Rome, me lads
And here's what I'll be stealin'
I'll rob the Sistine Chapel
Of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling
pre-chorus
And for all the folks in Egypt
It will be a dismal day
They'll be crying for their mummies
When we take their mummies away (Arr!)
chorus
Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
They will all cower in fear (Arr!)
chorus
Hey-ho!
From Delhi to Rio to Venice
There's no city that we will not menace
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?
No one can fight the frigate that flies
bridge
Oh, how high we will be (we will be)
'Cause the blue fairy dust surely packs a mighty wallop (It only takes a dollop)
Soon, it will set us free (We'll be free)
From the chains of gravity
bridge
Then we'll hoist up the sail
And we'll set course for the sun
'Cause when you've got wings
No wicked deed cannot be done
And we owe it all to our great and glorious Captain
verse
Although, now that you mention it
Why are we taking orders from some fairy, anyway?
Hehehe, a-two, three, four
chorus
Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
Give 'em a pirate cheer, yes! (Arr!)
chorus
Hey-ho!
We'll be the freighter that plunders
Every one of the world's seven wonders
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies? (that flies)
chorus
Hey-ho!
There's not a town or a county
That will not yield its bounty up
When the ship draws near
chorus
Hey-ho!
There's not a city or village
That we will not plunder or pillage
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?
outro
And every nation
Will give a donation
When they see us in the skies
In the frigate that flies, oi!
