And its whey hay where the roaches reign.
Can you swat what you cant see?
With the Black Flag running in our veins,
Well invite ourselves to tea.
Ive feasted well upon the dregs of food both both old and green.
A fortnight since I was an egg, and manys the sight Ive seen.
But the finest kitchen anywhere in which to keep a cockroach lair,
In trash cans full and cupboards bare, is Annes thats never clean.
(Chorus)
| Chorus: |
And its whey hay where the roaches reign. Can you swat what you cant see? With the Black Flag running in our veins, Well invite ourselves to tea. With the houseflies dancing overhead, In the putrid beef is where they bred. And youll regret that ever you fed At the board of Anne Bonney. |
Now some will change their dinner plans when they see a rodent there.
And some distrust the crusted pans left lying everywhere.
But the staunchest stomach could not stand,
and sooner would eat salad canned
Than find within it, not a strand, but a mat of Annes red hair.
(Chorus)
Come as you are, and scurry by; theres scads of stuff to steal.
Weve seen fresh veggies mummify and immortal Spam congeal.
Come midge and maggot, mold and mouse,
Well stuff you full; its on the house.
Bring all your grubs and serve your spouse for a fun-filled family meal.
(Chorus)
Its bread and butter ho, me hearties, strip the larder clean.
Well eat our fill of last nights partys foreign haute cuisine.
Well creep out with the morning sun and hide inside the hotdog bun.
And give our thanks when feedings done to Anne, the cockroach queen.
(Chorus)
