The Privateers |
| Don’t sell me anything |
| Your one time offer, so uncalled-for |
| You call it peace of mind |
| Cause I can see your house from here |
| Now all the leaves have fallen, dear |
| I can see you’re just a little privateer |
| As your confession draws more near |
| Time and again, I find I’m listless |
| Or rather, fistless |
| In time, oh, that’s what I find |
| So carry me to Mecca |
| With what you may divine |
| Take me with you, take me with you |
| Don’t leave me behind |
| Oh cause I, I don’t want your life insurance |
| Home, auto, health, flood, and fire insurance |
| Oh, just make, please make this basic inference |
| And speak of me in the present tense |
| Oh cause I, I can see your ships from here |
| Now all the weather’s so bright and clear |
| I can see you’re just a little profiteer |
| As your confession draws more near |
| As your confession draws more near |
| As your confession draws more near |
