By: Cedric McClester Abdul and the pirates Often used to boast How they had impunity Along the Somalian coast Taking ships whenever The opportunity appeared Holding them for ransom So the ***** could be shared Then the Maersk Alabama Came into the sight Of Abdul and the pirates Quite to their delight So they came aboard Making their demands But the unarmed Maersk crew Took it from their hands Abdul and the pirates Had no idea at all That they would be the ones Eventually who would fall So they took the captain Who had volunteered To become their hostage As towards home they steered Hoping they could reach The Somalian shore Where they would be successful In demanding much much more Abdul and the pirates Had no idea at all That they would be the ones Eventually who would fall A team of Navy snipers Were quietly on the case Looking for a target When the order was in place Abdul and the Pirates Unwillingly complied And that perhaps explains Why it is they died Abdul and the pirates Had no idea at all That they would be the ones Eventually who would fall So they took the captain Who had volunteered To become their hostage As towards home they steered Hoping they could reach The Somalian shore Where they would be successful In demanding much much more Abdul and the pirates Had no idea at all That they would be the ones Evenually who would fall Abdul and the Pirate Aren’t around to boast How they had impunity Along the Somalian coast Quite unfortunately for them They’ve become burnt toast (c) Copyright 2015, Cedric McClester.
