Pieces of eight
Pieces of eight
Polly's a parrot
Squawk.

Diamond Dip was the name of his ship
and it boasted sixteen guns
eighty five tonne and two tots of ***
for the rabble who dabbled in death.

Pieces of eight
and the skipper was late, caught
a broadside from his
blindside,
got carried in deep to where
the crew now sleep.

Polly squawked once
and died.
