DESCRIÇÃO GERAL

LETRA

Letra

[Verse 1]

A distant car, a quiet night, like starin' at the ceiling

My sleepy eyes, you smell so nice, it's such a funny feeling

Got no idea what time it is, delightfully confusing

The trees outside, the morning light arrives like pirates on parade

Surprise, it's pirates on parade

[Verse 2]

A ray of light between the blinds, I lie there in a stupor

I hear a thud and then a flush, guess it must be my neighbors

I blink my eyes, I laugh inside, imagine what they're sayin'

I see your shape and through the night

Here come those pirates on parade

Ahoy, it's pirates on parade

[Verse 3]

Through the rough and stormy weather, on a search for buried treasure

There's an island to explore, every wave that whispers softly

Stay in bed 'cause it's still early, dolphins frolic by the shore

And the phone never rings when the pirates are singin'

[Verse 4]

Well, there's sixteen men on a dead man's chest in this hallucination

The map we got, X marks the spot, we're followin' directions

The seven seas, the palmy breeze, the pleasure of surrender

The end is nigh, the sun is high, it's late for pirates on parade

Too late, for pirates on parade

[Verse 5]

Traffic noises down below me, a helicopter circles slowly

Monsters sink into the deep, mountainous and downy billows

Float among those fully pillows, maybe I'll go back to sleep

And the phone never rings when the pirates are singin'

[Verse 6]

This wicked life, so what's in store behind that velvet curtain?

The night is gone and the day is here, the stupid sun is shinin'

The moon reflects, your hair's a mess, its lovely imperfections

My crew and I, the clear blue skies sail on pirates on parade

Sail on, you pirates on parade
