The Pirates !

[jimbob]

I got a 3 man (cover atm) band and we're thinkin' about playing a song from The Pirates called Don't Munchen It.

Problem is, I can't get the lyrics right! I suppose it is an accent thingie more than
it is an old tune and nobody have made any lyrics that I could find on the net.

Anyone here willing to do teh work and PM me the lyrics?

Here's a the tune:




Im sorry to say but I've donated my paypal-cash to Neal couple weeks ago so there's no major reward I can give.

More, search on ewetube.

I'm not familiar with them, so I can't help.

I don't have a single album or song from The Pirates as CD or other format,
I do however have a version (cover) of this song on LP and CD (also mp3) from
a band called Bad Sign which is a bit faster and ballsier (imo) than the original.
(They did title the song as "Don't Mention It", thought. )

That usually never happens, originals are almost always better than covers IMO.

All I'm saying is, well, you don't have to be familiar with the band, really, just to listen the
song and write the lyrics down, that's it. My problem is with the language,
me been a Scandinavian I'll never master all the English dialects.
I can recognize spoken American, English and somewhat but that don't mean I'll ever understand it all.


I can't make many coherent sentences in this particular song and it's pissing me off.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Annnnyhooo, maybe someday someone who actually understands all the lyrics
writes down the stuff. That would be so interesting to say the least.
Who knows, weirder things has happened in the past.

Yes, that was it. Thanks a million!






That version is cover from a finnish band called Bad Sign.
LP came out late 80's but nowadays there's a CD available
in some places like cdon.eu
