Pirates on, pirates off
Well what do you know?
You get a little bit of wisdom
And then watch as it grows
I know I've said it all before and
I still know that it's a bore
But if you stop to think about it
It won't start anymore
So clap your hands, lift them over your head
We keep fighting 'til it's over and all over again
Always mining for the meaning while the rest are all retreating
Say goodnight, say goodnight as prosperity bends
I've got a little bit of hardware
Yeah it's wired to my brains
You know it's hard retreating back there
To find a reason for the pain
When everybody sees it
They look down and turn away
Now no one can believe this
And there's nothing to relay, there ain't nothing to relay
So clap your hands, lift them over your head
We keep fighting 'til it's over and all over again
Always mining for the meaning while the rest are all retreating
Say goodnight, say goodnight as prosperity bends
Say goodnight, say goodnight as prosperity bends
