Song lyrics

Woah-oh, come take a trip with me
I'll tell you of the greatest man who ever sailed the sea
Woah-oh, Fae Scotland's bonnie shores
He pillaged 'cross the ocean in search of rum galore
Woah-oh, aboard the good ship Scum
He'd fire a mighty blast from the 16 pounder gun
Woah-oh, his legendary crew
Could sail that ship to Hell and back, there's nothing they can't do

He killed the mighty Terrorsquid
The greatest man who ever lived
He beat the Vikings in a bloody war
Meet yer dad and smell yer maw

Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Plundering, pillaging, spreading disease
Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Bringing his foes to their knees
Fannybaws

Woah-oah, in Oban he was raised
He drank a bucket full of rum every single day
Woah-oh, his beard of flaming red
Would terrorize his enemies and make them wish they're dead
Woah-oh, four pistols on his belt
He went to battle naked, wearing just a tiger's pelt
Woah-oh, his name was Fannybaws
Now haud yer wheesht ya glaikit cunt or else he'll pump your maw

Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Plundering, pillaging, spreading disease
Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Bringing his foes to their knees
Fannybaws

Who killed the mighty Terrorsquid?
Fannybaws
The greatest man who ever lived?
Fannybaws
Who beat the vikings in a war?
Fannybaws
Meet yer dad and smell yer maw, oh
Who drinks his whisket neat and strong?
Fannybaws
Who's got a boaby two feet long?
Fannybaws
Who's gonna take nae shite from you?
Fannybaws
So what the fuck you gonna do?

He drinks his whiskey neat and strong
He's got a boaby two feet long
He's gonna take nae shite from the likes of you
So what the fuck you gonna do?
Woohoo!

Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Plundering, pillaging, spreading disease
Fannybaws, he's a fearsome pirate
Fannybaws, he's the scourge of the seas
Fannybaws, with the black flag flying
Bringing his foes to their knees
Fannybaws
