"Under Blackened Banners" lyrics
"Under Blackened Banners"
5000 years ago in the age of dinosaurs
A single voice of chaos spoke in a tongue not heard before
Heed my words o denizens of protoplasmic slime
I wield the pirate scepter, this wretched world is mine
And from the slime rose up an army of the damned
Black banners in the sky prepared for the command
Raise your hook
Raise your sword
Fight the world and face the horde
We're the brotherhood of pirates
We're the sisters of the sea
Sailing under blackened banners
Stealing ships and getting hammered
The destiny of piracy
Belongs to you and me
I am the heart of the conspiracy
A secret forged in mystery
From a time before the oceans spanned the globe
Beneath the flag of death I conquer
All those who would defy
The storm has come, black banners fill the sky
Raise your hook
Raise your sword
Fight the world and face the horde
We're the brotherhood of pirates
We're the sisters of the sea
Sailing under blackened banners
Stealing ships and getting hammered
The destiny of piracy
Belongs to you and me
We are one
We are all
We are never gonna fall
To the end of all eternity we'll stand against the law
And now the land lies dead from centuries of war
The protoplasmic pirate horde will rise to fight once more
EUGH!
This moment marks not the end of your mortal life
Nor is it the final chapter in your legacy
This is the beginning of your transcorporeal existence!
Raise your hook
Raise your sword
Fight the world and face the horde
We're the brotherhood of pirates
We're the sisters of the sea
Sailing under blackened banners
Stealing ships and getting hammered
Our history, our legacy
The force that sets the spirit free
The destiny of piracy
Belongs to you and me

Gloryhammer - "Angus McFife" He is the prince of the land of Fife
Noble and true with a heart of steel
Now it is lost vengeance shall be his
Angus McFife is his name
Across the wasteland, I ride upon swift steed
Behind me lies...
Powerwolf - "Incense & Iron" Follow the dead
In the dark of damnation
Pious in head
And a demon at heart
Sworn to the night
An evangelist nation
Born
Under the sign of the dark
Gather the wild
Form the horde of the brave men...
Lordi - "Blood Red Sandman" They called me "The Leather Apron"
They called me "Smiling Jack"
They prayed to the heavens above
That I would never ever come back
Can you hear how the children weep?
Chills of fear like a sawblade...
Amon Amarth - "Masters Of War" STRIKE!
Fast and hard, show no mercy for these men
The vermin of Christ, prophets of lies and their disciples
Seek them out, hunt them down
Break their spirits, crush their hearts
Not even death will...
Sabaton - "The Red Baron" Man and machine and nothing there in between
A flying circus and a man from Prussia
The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain
The western front and all the way to Russia
Death from above,...
