Deposit Pirates

Sailing the alley, black scarf round my head My old shopping trolley heels close to the wind Limping the gutter on my wooden limb Smelling of whisky, rum, beer and gin I hunt for treasures Wherever treasures may be found Don't look for diamonds There's a greater prize just lying around Approaching the waste bin, my hook held up high I'll board this vessel if I live or die To get all those bottles treasured within The waste dump sounds with my battle-cry: [Chorus] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deliver your empties and pray! Kissing my brides at the Kiosks around I lift my eye-patch, twinkling steal their refunds My jolly roger's crossed bottles and jar Winds toss my black wig, I must go on I hunt for treasures Wherever treasures may be found Don't look for diamonds There's a greater prize just lying around [Chorus] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deliver your empties and pray! The conquest is over, the sun's hanging low I sail with the tide: now I've got to go My chauffeur picks me up in my limousine I'm master, commander, fund-saver and mean [Chorus] Deposit Pirates at bay! Deliver your empties and pray! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deposit Pirates at bay! Fight for your flasks, fight for your cans Deliver your empties and pray!
