"Dress Like A Pirate" lyrics

"Dress Like A Pirate"

What if I woke up and decided
I wanna dress like a pirate?
I'm pretty tired of folding clothes
Every day down at Target

Well, maybe someday I'll sail the sea
Glad I woke up to write this song
If it makes me enough money
I'll be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Don't wanna spread any hate
Or do much plunderin' to ya
Just want a map that may or may not
Lead me to buried moolah

Oh, I blame it all on my dad
He'd always urge me to play along
Makin' movies in the backyard
Oh, my heart is too far gone

Well, maybe someday I'll sail the sea
Be the hero of my own tale
If I die before then maybe
I'll reincarnate as a whale

Where's my green flag?
Where's my go ahead?
Wanna do something crazy before I'm dead
Lots of red flags
I'm ignorin' them
Don't need a ship
Guess a raft would be alright instead
Just get me out of here
Just get me out of here, oh

One day I woke up and decided
I wanna dress like a pirate
I'm pretty tired of folding clothes
Every day down at Target

Well, maybe someday I'll sail that sea
Be the hero of my own life
If it makes me enough money
I'll finally quit my nine-to-five

Well, just you watch, I'ma sail that sea
Glad I woke up to write this song
When it makes me enough money
I'll be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
