Oh, it was end of age ol' 76
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
A letter of marque came from the king
To the scummiest crew I've ever seen
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right in to Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
Oh, Crazy Buka cried the town
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
For twenty-two weak men, all fishermen who
Would make for him the Archangel's crew
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
The Archangel KD was a sickening sight
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
She'd a list to the port and her Sages in rags
And the Orc's in the pit with the Masses and Raze
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
On their end o' Eowcf we put to sea
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
We were 8k up on Bloodlust Bay
Waving like madmen all the way
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
On and on we waved again
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
When The Bloodlust crew declared on sight
With their cracked four pounders they made to fight
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
Now the Bloodlust lay low down with Rogues
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
AA was broad and fat and loose in the stays
But to catch her only took Bloodlust two whole days
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
Then at length we stood two mil NW away
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
Their cracked four pounders made an awful din
With a few good chains, they stove us in
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
Archangels shook and pitched on her side
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
Buka was smashed like a bowl of eggs
And the Orcs n' Avians carried off both me legs
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The last of Buka's Privateers
So here I lay in my 10th year
(How I wish I wasn't in war now)
It's been 6 whole days since we sailed away
And I only got 78 acres left today! xD
Gosh darn them all! I was told
We'd cruise right into Cease
We'd lose no Provs, shed no tears
But I'm a broken man in the bottom 50 tier
The.. last... of.. Buka's Privaaateeeeeeeers!
