歌曲歌詞
We're Privateers Privateers Privateers
Of the Public Airwaves
Beware ye Public Broadcasters
We're comin' for to scuttle your scurvy membership
We'll be about as subtle as a sloop upon a slip
There ain't no damn rebuttal what'll button up our lip
Prepare to take a dip
We're ravaging your culture we're pillaging ad hoc
Don't bother to consult yer stars or talk yer dandy talk
For yonder be a vulture circling with a budget hawk
So down the plank Squawk
Audio-ho-ho
Video-ho-ho
You're sinkin' fast you'll never last
So stand avast ye knaves
We're privateers privateers privateers
Of the Public Airwaves
We wear a patch of black over both our pirate eyes
We'll cut you with a Draconian saber down to size
'Cause we got our tobacco and our rum to subsidize
Not to mention shakes and fries
We're raisin' up our standard so you can lower yours
We'll see you slashed and slandered
And abandoned on the shores
Then sail away to grander days and blander metaphors
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
Bring on the media whores
Audio-ho-ho
Video-ho-ho
You're sinkin' fast you'll never last
Another blast of our bombast
So stand avast ye knaves
We're privateers privateers privateers
Of the Public Airwaves
We've carved a bucket o' blubber
From every liberal lubber
And to the bottom fought 'em
As we wished 'em pleasant journey
We're gaggin' every elitist and every Sesame Streetist
We're throwin' Grover over
And the same with Bert and Ernie
We believe in the three R's Arr Arr and Arr
And your many miscellanies they haven't made a dent
Can't stop a pirate when he's in a cutthroat sentiment
We're pinchin' all your pennies
'Cause we can't afford dissent
You'll like it at the bottom
'Cause that's where the First Amendment
Went
Audio-ho-ho
Video-ho-ho
We'll split asunder R**e and plunder
Send 'er under and defund 'er
Hear the thunder of our blunderbuss
We're buckaneers
Prick up yer friggin' ears
May the market force be with ya
Tough luck an' 'ere's to us
