Pirates Creed

Pillage and then burn
pirates solemn creed.
Steal then run
escape at warp speed.

Plunder the planet
burn to get away.
Follow the formula
the same every day.

Obey your Captain
he will get you home.
Follow his orders
don’t die alone.

Escape with treasure
success equals stealth.
Keep the pirates creed
retire with wealth.

Live to reminisce
tales of battle fought.
Pillage and then burn
and don’t get caught.

from his arm,
Captain!"

p'tah! (I believe that's correct!)

Well done commander. . . to die in battle is a better honor than to die alone old, in a bed. . .

Excellent. . .
