lyrics

here's the plan

we'll take you and your shuttle crew
to get us to the moon
we'll put on your uniforms
and you'll take us to the room

with the quantum flux valve we need
to unlock our antique
we'll nab that tech real quick
back to the shuttle we will sneak

and if you're good we'll let you live
to see another day
while we escape from the empire
and use your ship as a getaway

the plan goes off without a hitch
until cyan tist turns into a snitch
he blows the alarm, guards everywhere
looks like its the end for the Corsairs

now hold on

if you take a closer look
at the valve still in the lab
you'll see that it's just a fake
the real one we did grab

the crew you captured in uniform
were the shuttle engineers
only the sneakiest pirate
was hidden amongst your peers

we knew that you would turn us in
so we planned a switcheroo
now we got the quantum flux valve
and we bid y'all a toodaloo

just as we depart empire space
thousands of robots begin to chase
the queen's army is too fast to evade
do we surrender or fight the brigade
