Sam Walton's Blues

from Red Box​!​!​!​!​! by Pirates R Us

/

lyrics

No matter how much
I plunder and I loot
I'll never make as much
As a monkey in a suit
Even with my crew
Of jolly, schwilly mates
I'll never pull a scam
Like when Enron raised the rates
So if you see someone
With a briefcase and a tie
Don't expect an answer
If you want more than a lie
And if you think we're wrong
For bein' who we be
Then look into the mansions
And not into the sea

Let the streets run red with the blood of the rich
We'll drag you from your limo
Leave you dead in a ditch

Went down to the Peg Leg Pub
For a pint
Sat down at the bar
And I drank into the night
A drunken CEO
Comes and pulls up a stool
Says "I see you're a pirate
And I think you're a fool!
I can steal millions
With just a laptop
While you're stuck on your ship
Swabbin' decks with a mop"
And then he spilled my grog
And it caused quite a fuss
So I blew him away
With my trusty blunderbuss

Let the streets run red with the blood of the rich
We'll drag you from your Hummer
Leave you dead in a ditch

We're sailing the Potomac
To Washington DC
Presenting our demands
For buccaneer equality
If negotiations fail
We'll draw our bloody swords
We'll slaughter, and we'll plunder
And we'll take our just rewards

Let the streets run red with the blood of the rich
We'll gather all your poodles
Leave them dead in a ditch

Let the streets run red with the blood of the rich
I'd rather be a pirate
Than a snooty corporate bitch
