Port Royal
Up with the roger, the vessel is close 
Cannons are loaded the weapons prepared 
Set up more sails the distance grows 
They try to escape but we shan't care 


Calico Jack, Listen and hear my command 
Calico Jack, I lead you to victory 
Calico Jack, We shall win in the end 
Calico Jack, You may believe what I foresee 


Down with the roger, the vessel's too far 
It's time for the red flag, no remorse 
Ann and Mary, more rum in my jar 
I need more refreshment before we set course 


Changing the course now, we must get in touch 
Triple afford, he must not escape 
Our breath in their neck they feel our grudge 
We have to hurry to get them in scrape 


Fight 


Acrid smell of smoke in the air 
White flag's rising, mainmast breaks 
Ears go deaf by my brother's blare 
Upper deck is taken over 


All of a sudden a yelling cry 
Ports turn open, what a mess 
Soldiers get out'n'comrades die 
Desperate fights, we're on the lose 


[THE JUDGE] 


John Rackham 
You are charged with murder and piracy of the high seas 
In the name of Her Majesty you will be taken from this court 
And hung, drawn and quartered 


What are your last words, accused? 


[CALICO JACK] 


My last words? Ha ha!!! 
Who do you think you are?! 
What right have you to judge over my destiny?! 
Take your pompous words and stick'em where the sun don't shine 
I swear we meet again 
Bye
