Pirate This Song
God Ate My Homework Lyrics

We're the music pirates.
We are those who illegally copy music and distribute it without permission.

We sail the IR seas.
We navigate the internet to find and download music.

We rip our favorite albums.
We copy our favorite music albums without authorization from their creators.

We share our mp3's.
We distribute the music we illegally obtain to others without paying the creators.

We ride our waves from port to port,
We share our illegally obtained music across different internet platforms.

And maybe trade some wares.
We may exchange music with others who share our interests.

But if you flood our vessel,
If someone tries to stop us or restrict our activity, they will face consequences.

We will trounce your derrieres!
We will fight back, protecting our illegal activity at all costs.

What are they gonna do about it?
We are daring anyone to try to stop us, because we believe we are untouchable.

It's nice to share.
We justify our actions as a good thing, as we believe we are sharing music with others who would not have it otherwise.

You know that you can't do without it.
We believe that music is essential, and therefore should be accessible to everyone regardless of legality or copyright.

And show you care.
We believe that sharing music demonstrates a sense of unity and generosity.

Won't you come and join our crew?
We invite others to join us in our illegal activities.

There's always room for more.
We are always looking for new members to join us in piracy.

We promise fame and fortune,
We entice new members with the prospect of becoming famous and rich through piracy.

And barnacles galore.
We promise a great adventure and a wealth of opportunities to earn money and acquire new music.

Let's sail down this channel
Let's navigate a specific digital pathway to find new music to pirate.

To yonder secret site.
Let's explore an online location that is not widely known to find music to pirate.

The treasure's worth it even if
The valuable music we acquire from these piracy excursions is worth any effort or risk involved.

It keeps us up all night!
The excitement of piracy and the rewards it brings keep us going at all hours of the night.

Have you seen the Armada?
Have you noticed the increasing enforcement against piracy and the growing efforts to stop our activity?

They say we've trimmed their sails.
We believe that our piracy has impacted and limited the efforts of those who seek to enforce piracy laws.

They aim to throw us in the brig,
Law enforcement targets pirates with legal action and imprisonment.

Yet piracy prevails.
Despite the efforts of authorities, we believe piracy will never be eradicated and will always find a way to exist.

Queen Ria's more cutthroat than we,
We see music industry leaders and law enforcement as being more ruthless in their efforts than ourselves.

But doesn't understand
We believe the music industry representatives do not truly understand our motivations for piracy.

That there will be us pirates
We believe that piracy will always exist in some form or another, as long as music is something people desire and seek to acquire.

Wherever there's room to land.
We believe that as long as there are places on the internet where music can be shared, piracy will find a foothold.
