Come all ye young pirates that fly through the air,
With a yo ho! Please blow this thing down.
It's terrifying please save me from here,
Will a high pressure system blow this thing down?
Aboard the Rishadan Airship I first served my time,
With a yo ho! Please blow this thing down.
I was sick the whole cruise and didn't earn a dime.
Will a BB gun pellet blow this thing down?
We're landsman and sailors but all afraid to fall,
With a yo ho! Please blow this thing down.
Watch out for that mountain it's a mile tall.
Maybe its ragged peak will blow this thing down.
To larboard and starboard I get vertigo,
With a yo ho! Please blow this thing down.
The sandwich I ate just went out the window,
Oh, no, this thing is going down.
Wear this shirt: in your imagination
Don't wear this shirt: among the illiterate throng
This shirt tells the world: "I read at a tech-fantasy level."
We call this color: Bad, Bad Leeward Brown
