A cursed night in April

Music & Lyrics: Niklas Ahlgren

’Twas a cursed night in April
A heavy rain was comin’ down
A tired nightwatch freezing in a tower
High above a sleeping town

Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj
Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj

A pirate ship is coming close
Hidden in the darkness of night
Its gunners loading up their guns
Getting ready for a merciless fight

Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj
Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj

The city awakens from its sleep
”Pirates! The pirates are here!”
Killing and searching for gold
Leaving dead bodies everywhere

Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj
Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj

The devils from the sea took what they wanted
Bringing back to their ship the city’s gold
Leaving carnage and chaos and fire in exchange
The city governor a dead body, cold

Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse
But it also comes with a curse
Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj
Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj
Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj
But it also comes with a curse
