Chris Bowes has stated that this song is a direct reference to Aether Realm’s “TMHC” (Tiny Metal Hand Crew). He was in the video for “TMHC” as well. But whereas “TMHC” is a celebration of Aether Realm’s fans, “Pirate Metal Drinking Crew” is a tongue-in-cheek derision of Alestorm’s fans.
[Intro]
Go
[Verse 1]
This is the tale of a world gone wrong
A history without a song
The threads of meaning lost to me
We're blind to what we cannot see
Aeons ago when the ancients ruled
Otyg and Lumsk, celebrating yule
But then the damn pirates came along and said
"Yo ho ho, you're fucking dead"
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now your world's crashing down, only one can survive
It's time you woke up and realized
[Chorus]
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
Fuck you
[Post-Chorus]
Woo!
[Verse 2]
Sailing the seas of the distant past
We're on a quest to kick your ass
With cannon fire and battle cry
Your mighty legacy will die
The blood of Blackbeard in our veins
We're bringing slaughter, death and pain
There's no escape, tonight you're screwed
'Cause we're the pirate metal drinking crew
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Across the seven seas
For a thousand years
We're your greatest wish
We're your darkest fear
[Chorus]
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
Fuck you
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We think you're dumb and we hate you too
We are the pirate metal drinking crew
We don't give a fuck, we think you all suck
Fuck you
