the old pirates



Pirates




The old pirates want to leave
On the stage they know they can't stay

They hint it to all
Let our successors take from here

They got what they wanted
In the decades plundering the forests

In the decades taking the rich from the soil
Away the wealth gone to overseas

The majority leaving from day to day
Once bitten they should know

Yet somehow they didn't realize
They were charmed by the tokens

Now they wake up
They realize what fools they have been

Now they are going for change
It isn't transformation they seek

The old pirates will be called
When the day will come for the toll

The old pirates appeal for it
They think the people still act like zombies
