[Rolf Kasparek]He was born at the shore of Greenhock in the year 1645Ran away at the age of fourteen, to flee from his soul-killing lifeHe signed on to sail the wild-windsBut he worked down his hands and his kneesHe stood his test on the waters, so they said He was bred to the seaIn 1697, the Adventurer... was setting its sailsWith the letter of marque and reprisal, Kidd was prepared for his trailThey sailed the sea with the mission, to hunt down Tew and Long BenA serious riot was rising, so Kidd struck down one of his menAnd he died!Blue-blooded men they fell from gracePiranhas eating their ownThey sacrificed at the altar of liesSo fate took its course in the ballad of William KiddThe Adventurer... returned to her hometown, Kidd was forced to defenceThey charged him with looting and murder his patrons and generous friendsHe'd left his crew at St. Thomas, to guard his honour from shameBut the lords they lied like a trooper, not to lose their own heads in the gameBlue-blooded men they fell from gracePiranhas eating their ownThey sacrificed at the altar of liesSo fate took its course in the ballad of William KiddThe lords testified, their unholy lies, to save their own heads from the gallowsThey sacrificed Kidd, they took him for a ride that conspiratorial fellowsThey judged him and they found him guilty of piracy of the high seasBetraying men of honour, you know lie and cheat as they pleaseA case of judicial murder caused the death of a seafaring manSlanderous bunch of liars, to hell your souls will be damnedBlue-blooded men they fell from gracePiranhas eating their ownThey sacrificed at the altar of liesSo fate took its portentous course. What a shame!In the ballad of William Kidd[Dedicated to the memory of William Kidd]
