They hold you down Spin you round f** you up And they hold you down Waiting for The jingle jangle of the jailers bangle To set you free (oh set me free) Only true hearts and minds and melodies Are said to cure all known maladies So sing along It won't be long Until the whole city belongs To true hearts and minds Maladies will be gone Oh and the piracy (piracy) And they'll keep on busking through your dreams that your living Taking all along the seams which are splitting Way beneath the sea in which your living in, oh Oh the piracy, do you believe honour amongst honest men (?) That's not a lollipop, it's a machete! When they keep on busking through my dreams that your living Way beneth the seams that are splitting Way beneth the sea in which I'm living in Tell me why-y-y, can't you look me in the eye-y? li-di di Just tell me why, why did you break my heart? Shoop de-lang de-lang, de-lang de-lang Why would it matter to you anymore than me wail.. Tell me why-y-y, can't you look me in the eye-y? li-di di Just tell me why, why did you break my heart? Shoop de-lang de-lang, de-lang de-lang Why would it matter to you so late in the day.. Shoop de-lang de-lang, de-lang de-lang This town may hold no hope for me Well I think I'd run away to see.. Oh the piracy, do you believe honour amongst honest men (?) They will keep on busking through my dreams that I'm living Way beneath the seams that are splitting Way beneath the sea in which I'm living They will keep on busking through my dreams that I'm living Way beneath the seams that are splitting Way beneath the sea in which I'm living
