Settle It With a Swordfight
Galactic Showdown: Settle Disputes With a Swordfight
Lyrics
Hit the gas, kicking ass, let’s go
Expressing urgency and determination to accelerate, succeed, and take action.
Got the crew in the back with the stereo, But you already know
Having companions in the back with music, emphasizing a sense of camaraderie.
Get the cash, going fast, explode
Striving for financial gain and speed, with the risk of a destructive outcome.
Never break the galactic pirate code,
Commitment to a set of rules among galactic pirates, emphasizing loyalty.
Or you can hit the fucking road
Warning that deviating from the pirate code leads to expulsion or confrontation.
Well, if you roll with us and you’re not seeing eye to eye
Addressing potential conflicts within the group, suggesting differences in perspective.
A problem on the crew you know that words just won’t revise When there’s nothing left to say, you’ve got to let your blade reply Someone’s gonna die
Advocating the resolution of disputes through physical combat when words fail.
Settle it with a swordfight,
Suggesting the preferred method of conflict resolution: settling disputes through swordfights.
If we can’t tell just who’s right
Reiterating the preference for swordfights when determining the right course of action is unclear.
Settle it with a swordfight,

Hit the lights and the fight begins Cold steel can justify your sins
Beginning of a fight with a focus on the use of cold steel (swords) to justify one's actions.
I wonder who will win
Expressing curiosity about the outcome of the battle, suggesting unpredictability.
So pass a drink and I think it’s time Two souls do battle till one dies That doesn’t really rhyme
Humorous acknowledgment of the lack of rhyme, possibly to lighten the intense theme.
Well, if you roll with us and you’re not seeing eye to eye
