Stormwitch Tigers Of The Sea

Message from the masthead: "Spanish galleon, straight ahead!"

Up the shrouds, hoist all the canvas

It is worth the plunder, coming from down under

Filled with spicery and treasures

Out on the sea, the power is ours

Spitting on order and law of the king

Banished we are, outlawed forever

We never care what tomorrow may bring

Tigers of the sea, chasing the gold of her Royal Majesty

Tigers of the sea, sentenced to death at the black gallows tree

All men to the cannons, let them shiver, make them dance

Casks of ruin for everyone, lets go

When the riggings falling, boarding partys crawling

Up the rail, we will prevail

We never know the habits and fashion

Of Englands and Netherlands nobility

We only know the king is no poor man

A few diamonds less wont make him weep

Tigers of the sea . . .

Gentry, take care of your jewelry

Sire, beware of the tiger

Black pyre, sails on fire

Tigers of the sea . . .
