Green Day parody lyrics
Sail Away
For use with Holiday
(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)
Say aye!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down right on their-cannon flame
The shame
The ones who died in their domain
Here we got out with the key
To freedom from do - main misery
The East India Company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ from such lawful times
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
To sail-away
Bring the rum out to drown your plight
Another protestor has crossed the line
To find the fun-be on the pirate side
Can I get another seaman? Seaman!
Brit - ish flag flapped around ho - rri - ble men
At - tack, blast and sack their monument
(We’ll) be more
The representative from Jamaica has no more
Say goodbye to the dominant British-man
Cannons away is your punishment
Pull-your-lives from colonial powers
We criticize their government
Bang bang goes the cannon blast
And kill all those **** that don’t agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not the way that’s meant for me
Just cause, just cause, because we’re outlaws yeah!
This is our lives to sail-away
