You Are A Pirate
/b/ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true
And I am a fool for beauty
Fooled by a feeling that because I have found you
I could have bound you too

You are too beautiful for one man alone
For one lucky fool to be with
When there are other men
With eyes of their own to see with

Love does not stand sharing
Not if one cares
Have you been comparing
My every kiss with theirs

If, on the other hand, I'm faithful to you
It's not through a sense of duty
You are too beautiful
And I am a fool for beauty

Love does not stand sharing
Not if one cares
Have you been comparing
My every kiss with theirs

If, on the other hand, I'm faithful to you
It's not through a sense of duty




You are too beautiful
And I am a fool for beauty

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are actually a cover of a classic song from the 1940s called "You Are Too Beautiful", originally composed by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart for the musical "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum". They have been reinterpreted by /b/ in their pirate-themed song, "You Are A Pirate". The lyrics express the singer's admiration and love for their significant other, who they believe is too beautiful to be true. The singer acknowledges their own foolishness for being so enamored with beauty, but cannot help the feeling that they have found someone special and unique.


The singer also recognizes that their partner's beauty makes them desirable to other men, and expresses concern about this. They suggest that love cannot be shared, as it is a personal and intimate feeling that cannot be divided. They also question whether their partner has been comparing their kisses to those of other men, indicating a sense of jealousy and possessiveness. However, the singer also states that their faithfulness to their partner is not due to a sense of duty, but rather because they truly believe their partner is too beautiful to let go.

Considering that a katana could be anywhere between 1 and 1.5 kg the fact that Scout is able to lift it that high is quite impressive

@Zero2HeroX

I think lifting the anchor is much more impressive
