"Ahh, look at ye, a fine collection o' bastards! Have I told ye of de night de Mermaid sailed through hell?" CREW: "THE MERMAID?!" "Aye. Sailor Jerry's Mermaid. An' de devil learned ta swim dat night." 'Twas a blackened sky on a cursed oul' sea, De Gambit ran wild wit' de wind blowin' free. Through cannon smoke, beneath a burnin' sky, De Mermaid held her colors high! "I'd know dose sails through a hundred storms. Dat's me brother Jerry out dere." CREW: "Captain! She's surrounded!" GLASS: "DEN WHY DE FECK ARE WE STILL HERE?!" CREW: WHO HOLDS DE WATER?! CREW: THE MERMAID ROARS! GLASS: WHO BRINGS DE THUNDER?! CREW: THE GAMBIT'S GUNS! ALL: TWO SHIPS! TWO CAPTAINS! ONE SEA! HEAVE, HO! LET DE BLACK SAILS FLY! RAISE DE GUNS AN' SPLIT DE SKY! SIDE BY SIDE WHERE DE WILD WAVES ROLL, TWO BROTHER CAPTAINS AN' A HEART O' GOLD! HEY! HO! LET DE CANNONS ROAR! DE GAMBIT RIDES WHERE DE MERMAID SOARS! We came hard a-starboard, wind in our teeth, Sent iron an' thunder to de deep underneath. De Mermaid fired back, de enemy fell, An' Jerry stood laughin' at de gates o' hell! GLASS: "JERRY! NEED A HAND?!" JERRY: "TOOK YE LONG ENOUGH, GLASS!" GLASS: "Ungrateful fecker! RUN OUT DE GUNS!" GLASS: LOAD DE IRON! GLASS: LET IT FLY! ALL: FOR DE MERMAID! FOR DE GAMBIT! Grapnels flew an' de timbers screamed, Steel rang steel in de lantern's gleam. I drew me blade as de boarders came, Jerry at me back in a hurricane! "Some battles show ye who's beside ye. Jerry stood dere, shoulder ta shoulder. Not one step back." When de lanterns died an' de steel came down, Me brother held fast while de world spun round. "So I asked him... shall we finish dis, den?" Jerry took de left an' I took de right, We drove their captain out o' de fight! Even Lion'sroar put down his lute, Drew steel beside us in de final pursuit! By dawn their guns had all gone cold, Two ships stood proud wit' colors o' gold! "De Mermaid still flyin'. De Gambit beside her. Two battered ships. Two stubborn bastards." "Ye didn't think we went home sober?!" We rolled out de barrels an' poured out de rum, Wit' fiddles screamin' an' beat o' de drum! De Mermaid's lads danced wit' de Gambit's crew, Jerry drank three while I barely had two! CROWD: "DAT'S A FECKIN' LIE!" GLASS: "WHO'S TELLIN' DIS STORY?!" HEAVE, HO! LET DE BLACK SAILS FLY! RAISE YER GLASSES TA DE SKY! SIDE BY SIDE WHERE DE WILD WAVES ROLL, TWO BROTHER CAPTAINS AN' A HEART O' GOLD! HEY! HO! LET DE TANKARDS ROAR! DE GAMBIT RIDES WHERE DE MERMAID SOARS! GLASS: WHO SAILED THROUGH HELL?! CROWD: THE MERMAID! GLASS: WHO STOOD BESIDE ME?! GLASS: SAILOR JERRY! ALL: TWO SHIPS! TWO CAPTAINS! ONE SEA! "Tell Jerry Captain Glass owes him a drink... Nah! Tell de bastard he owes ME one!" "SLΓINTE, YE BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS!"
