Lyrics

The sight of me the Spaniards must be seasick to the molar
I plunder treasure galleons off the shores of Hispaniola
And if a ship done caught my eye, I went ahead and stole her
L'Ollonnais, Chevalier, everybody fears
They roasted men like manatee
And washed them down with tears
I am the cruellest of all Buccaneers
Lily livered land lubbers, I put them to the cutlass
The greatest seafarers of lore
Wished they'd stayed ashore
And studied the atlas
We are the buccaneers of Hispaniola
Buccaneers of Hispaniola
Tighten up that woolding rope 'til your eye pops out of its socket
Hang you upside down and take whatever comes out of your pocket
Slice you nice and thin so you fit in your widow's locket
I took on the bravest of the brave
And gutted them gutless
My one man relentless pursuit
Of booty and loot
Put the Caribbean on the atlas
We are the buccaneers of Hispaniola
Buccaneers of Hispaniola
Whoo!
Bu-bu-bu-bu-bu, bu-bu-buccaneers
Bu-bu-bu-bu-bu, bu-bu-buccaneers
Bu-bu-bu-bu-bu, bu-bu-buccaneers
Bu-bu-bu-bu-bu, bu-bu-buccaneers
Thank you so much, thank you so much
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
(Dancing on Friday night)
Let the music smother me
Whole weekend recovering
(Dancing on Friday night)
I see, while I'm thinking about it
One of my friends, Andy Taylor came
Ehm, to see us play in Wembly in 2003-4
And uh, I did a guitar solo on the back of a tiger
Do you remember that?
That- to, um and he waved at me and um, I didn't wave back
'Cause I was in the middle of something
So Andy, where-where are you?
I wish to make amends
(Yeah)
Where? Where? Andy, yes
This is for 2004
Everyone wave at Andy
He's over near the toilet exit
