Glory or Gold

2026-11-07

Crawling across the sky
All of my crew and I are
Wanted for the highest form of treason

For questioning authority
Demanding we sweat and bleed
And slave our lives away, then call it freedom

So hoist up the Jolly Roger
We’re taking a ride
Take back the life that they denied

For glory or gold
We sail across the galaxy
Our sovereign starship flying free
Forever, our treasure
Taken from plutocracy
We’ve all got mouths to fucking feed
So it’s a pirate’s life for me

So you’ve got to make a choice
If you will raise your voice
For all of those who suffer now in silence

‘Cause the crown would never hesitate
To laugh while we suffocate
Then ask us why we must reply with violence

So hoist up the Jolly Roger
We’re taking a ride
Take back the life that they denied

For glory or gold
We sail across the galaxy
Our sovereign starship flying free
Forever, our treasure
Taken from plutocracy
We’ve all got mouths to fucking feed
So it’s a pirate’s life for me!
Yeah! It’s a pirate’s life for me!
