Lyrics

With a hii hii hoo and a hii hii hey!

Expressing enthusiasm and energy through vocalizations.

We're hoisting the flag to be free

Raising the flag as a symbol of freedom.

We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go

Confidently taking control, asserting pirate identity.

We are wolves of the sea

Identifying as fierce and daring pirates of the sea.


Don't try to run it's all set and done

Warning against resistance, implying inevitability.

There's treasure in sight

Announcing the presence of valuable spoils.

We are robbing you blind I hope you don't mind

Openly admitting to stealing, with a touch of humor.

We are taking it all tonight

Declaring intent to take everything without remorse.


Just walk away we'll count it all

Suggesting surrender is the wisest course.

Pirates will stand and the loser will fall

Describing the fate of pirates and losers in a confrontation.


With a hii hii hoo and a hii hii hey

Repeating the energetic vocalizations.

We're bound to be close to the sea

Expressing proximity and affinity to the sea.

Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing

Highlighting the captain's role in leading with a song.

Pirates are all we can be

Affirming a commitment to a pirate lifestyle.


With a hii hii hoo and a hii hii hey!

Reiterating the lively vocalizations.

We're hoisting the flag to be free

Emphasizing the symbolic act of raising the flag for freedom.

We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go

Affirming the intention to captivate and entertain.

We are wolves of the sea

Restating the identity as fearless wolves of the sea.


Down to the core we're coming for more

Expressing a relentless pursuit and desire for more.

With a sword close at hand

Describing preparedness for battle with a sword.

We are scary and bold chest full of gold

Portraying pirates as intimidating and wealthy.

We get sealegs when sighting land

Indicating adaptability upon reaching land.


The hook of our captain is looking at you

Pointing out the captain's watchful eye with a hook.

There's no Peter Pan so what can you do

Rejecting the fantasy of Peter Pan, emphasizing reality.


With a hii hii hoo and a hii hii hey!

Repeating the energetic vocalizations.

We're hoisting the flag to be free

Reaffirming the act of raising the flag for freedom.

We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go

Reiterating the goal to captivate with Jolly Rogers.

We are wolves of the sea

Reemphasizing the identity as formidable wolves of the sea.
