Abney Park - Airship Pirate lyrics
[Abney Park - Airship Pirate lyrics]
Our fire's high and the airbag's tight
Our food's low but the skies are bright
Props spinning all through the night
We're low on cash but
We've seen another target
Goggles down, and the cannons up
My blood starts pumping as I drain my cup
I give the wheel a spin and
I turn this girl around
We're way above ground but we're
Closing on our target
Our flying jib is filled with air
East India ship's filled with despair
We even up, our broadsides bare
Our cannons flare but it's just
A show of muscle
Steady on, she doesn't need to burn
She tries to flee, and she tries to turn
Grappling fire, we grab her hull
We're starting to roll
But we've got her on a leash
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves now
Expendable crew starts to reel her in
Our swords are sharpened and
They're ready to sin i'm three miles up
We're about to swing aboard
My tether's made of leather so I'm
Not about to fall here
A swish of air and my boots hit deck
No cash, no food, no, not a speck
Our grapeshot's made this bird a wreck
But a glance below deck shows a
Crew of nuns and orphans!
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves now
Our food's low but the skies are bright
Props spinning all through the night
We're low on cash but
We've seen another target
Goggles down, and the cannons up
My blood starts pumping as I drain my cup
I give the wheel a spin and
I turn this girl around
We're way above ground but we're
Closing on our target
Our flying jib is filled with air
East India ship's filled with despair
We even up, our broadsides bare
Our cannons flare but it's just
A show of muscle
Steady on, she doesn't need to burn
She tries to flee, and she tries to turn
Grappling fire, we grab her hull
We're starting to roll
But we've got her on a leash
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves
With a crew of drunken pilots
We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves now
Expendable crew starts to reel her in

We're full of hot air and

We're the only airship pirates!
We're full of hot air and
We're starting to rise
We're the terror of the skies
But a danger to ourselves now
