...hummed his first mate's cousin, see
and on his chin he rubbed a pin
of iron composition
"Arr a bad position,"
he sighed it verily to be;
"when chased on down by a military ship
capable of destroying thee."

capable of destroying thee, oh they're capable of destroying thee
fly thou foul and hated pirate
whenst thouever see

upon the mast up up ahead the crowsman sighted she
the great ship sailing past
he
who sails the waves in wicked tales
of theft and depravity

so fly thou foul and hated pirate
whenst thouever see
a military ship that's clearly capable
of destroying
thee

~ IDF N traditional song, first known to be written down in the 11th century f.e. (Flame Era) by an unknown author/scribe
