Testo Great Pirates
On the morning when I stop looking back
I’ll be up to see the sunrise in deep bruised black
And bright blood red, and pale desert rose
And several other colors like those
Great pirates testing the waves
Great pirates testing the waves
Everybody gone from here
May you all emerge free and clear And may you do some good where you go
High in the hands of the crosswinds, or in the arms of the undertow
Great pirates testing the waves
Great pirates testing the waves
And calling the roll— let’s see:
Just me
And checking the rigging before
Heading off to war
Peach rose black sky up early
Carry what I need to carry
Bury what I have to bury
Dancing, whistling, singing past the cemetery
Great pirates testing the waves
Great Great pirates
Great pirates testing the waves
Great Great pirates Great pirates testing the waves
I’ll be up to see the sunrise in deep bruised black
And bright blood red, and pale desert rose
And several other colors like those
Great pirates testing the waves
Great pirates testing the waves
Everybody gone from here
May you all emerge free and clear And may you do some good where you go
High in the hands of the crosswinds, or in the arms of the undertow
Great pirates testing the waves
Great pirates testing the waves
And calling the roll— let’s see:
Just me
And checking the rigging before
Heading off to war
Peach rose black sky up early
Carry what I need to carry
Bury what I have to bury
Dancing, whistling, singing past the cemetery
Great pirates testing the waves
Great Great pirates
Great pirates testing the waves
Great Great pirates Great pirates testing the waves
