Tankard - Deposit Pirates lyrics

Sailing the alley, black scarf round my head My old shopping-trolley heels close to the wind Limping the gutter on my wooden limb Smelling of whisky, rum, beer and gin I hunt for treasures Wherever treasures may be found Don't look for diamonds There's a greater prize just lying around Approaching the waste bin, my hook held up high I'll board this vessel if I live or die To get all those bottles treasured within The waste dump sounds with my battle-cry: [Chorus:] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - Deliver your empties and pray! Kissing my brides at the Kiosks around I lift my eye-patch, twinkling steal their refunds My jolly roger's crossed bottles and jar Winds toss my black wig - I must go on I hunt for treasures Wherever treasures may be found Don't look for diamonds There's a greater prize just lying around [Chorus:] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - deliver your empties and pray! The conquest is over, the sun's hanging low I sail with the tide: now I've got to go My chauffeur picks me up in my limousine I'm master, commander, fund-saver and mean [Chorus:] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans - deliver your empties and pray!
