Dead Men Tell No Tales
John was a merchant on the
Warf and had been his whole life
Sold fine goods and pottery, took the money home to his wife
- Oh, that was nice of him
- Sounds like he was booty whipped to me
Wrong place at the wrong time, witnessed the murder of Ray McClask
- Ray McClask, who’s that?
- Some guy I owed money to
- Who don’t you owe money to?
And now he’ll be talking to
no one lads, for he sleeps with a knife in his back
Way Oh Well, Dead Men Tell No Tales (x4)
In the pub one evening I sat content and happily
Woman at me side kissing me neck, my hand upon her knee
- Oh, frisky
When in walked a man who
knew me, and walked right up to see
“Hey Patch” he said with a sarcastic grin
- How’s the wife and kids mate
And he never again was seen
Way Oh Well, Dead Men Tell No Tales (x4)
I once lay with the kings daughter
- You’re lying
- What king?
- Isn’t she married?
She was well built and twenty-three
- he he he, canons
- canons?
- Yea, you know, dairy canons
I left her with a present
- Oh, that was nice of you. What’d you leave her, flowers? Chocolates?
- He he, Candy
- Well you’ve seen her son haven’t you?
- Yea, he’s a cute little two year old and…
- Yea, he’s so… No…. you didn’t
The boy looks just like me
- You really think he’s cute?
- What if her husband finds out
- He’ll grind your bones mate
- Oh I assure you he already knows
- He does?
- Yea, and he don’t want me coming back leaking word that his son has the blood of a pirate
- I can imagine, pirates is scary
- You’re a pirate idiot
- Oh yea
He wants me head on a skewer, and to send me straight to hell
- Well that’s not very nice
- Yea, what’s he want to do that for?
- I already told you

- Alright so what are we going to do with this body
- Ah, just leave it here
- Leave it here, what if someone says something
- Who’s going to say something, him
- He can’t talk, he’s dead dead
- Exactly and dead men tell no tales
Way Oh Well….
- Stop it
- Sorry
