Lyrics The Frigate That Flies - The Pirate Ensemble

First, the Tower of London, arr
The guards won't know what hit it
We swoop right down, and take the crown
And the crown jewels with it

And when we fly to Paris
All the treasures, I'll be grabbing
The Mona Lisa will look lovely
Hanging in me cabin

Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
In the stratosphere

Hey-ho!
We'll be the freighter that plunders
Every one of the world's seven wonders
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?
No one can fight the frigate that flies

Next, we'll roam to Rome, me lads
And here's what I'll be stealin'
I'll rob the Sistine Chapel
Of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling

And for all the folks in Egypt
It will be a dismal day
They'll be crying for their mummies
When we take their mummies away (Arr!)

Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
They will all cower in fear (Arr!)

Hey-ho!
From Delhi to Rio to Venice
There's no city that we will not menace
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?
No one can fight the frigate that flies

Oh, how high we will be (we will be)
'Cause the blue fairy dust surely packs a mighty wallop (It only takes a dollop)
Soon, it will set us free (We'll be free)
From the chains of gravity

Then we'll hoist up the sail
And we'll set course for the sun
'Cause when you've got wings
No wicked deed cannot be done
And we owe it all to our great and glorious Captain

Although, now that you mention it
Why are we taking orders from some fairy, anyway?
Hehehe, a-two, three, four

Hey-ho!
Imagine the places that we'll go
No one can stop us when we're so high
Give 'em a pirate cheer, yes! (Arr!)

Hey-ho!
We'll be the freighter that plunders
Every one of the world's seven wonders
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies? (that flies)

Hey-ho!
There's not a town or a county
That will not yield its bounty up
When the ship draws near

Hey-ho!
There's not a city or village
That we will not plunder or pillage
When we're up in the skies
For who can fight the frigate that flies?

And every nation
Will give a donation
When they see us in the skies
In the frigate that flies, oi!
