Lyrics:
what if i woke up and decided
i wanna dress like a pirate
i’m pretty tired of folding clothes
every day down at target
well maybe someday ill sail the sea
glad i woke up to write this song
if it makes me enough money
i’ll be gone gone gone gone gone
don’t wanna spread any hate
or do much plunderin to ya
just wanna map that may or may not
lead me to buried moola
oh i blame it all on my dad
he’d always urge me to play along
makin movies in the backyard
oh my heart is too far gone
well maybe someday ill sail the sea
be the hero of my own tale
if i die before then maybe
i’ll reincarnate as a whale
where’s the green flag
where’s my go head
wanna do something
crazy before i’m dead
lotsa red flags
i’m ignoring them
don’t need a ship
guess a raft would be alright instead
just get me out of here
just get me out of here
one day i woke up and decided i wanna dress like a pirate
i’m pretty tired of folding clothes every day down at target
well maybe someday ill sail that sea
be the hero of my own life
if it makes me enough money
i’ll finally quit my 9-to-5
well just you watch ima sail that sea
glad i woke up to write this song
when it makes me enough money
ill be gone gone gone gone gone
gone gone gone gone gone
gone gone gone gone gone
gone gone gone gone gone

I've worked at fast food for awhile now. It's so tiring doing a repetitive job you don't even enjoy just to get paid small money for tedious work. Especially knowing there are so many more options for me in the world with my creativity that I wish to share to the world. Madilyn surely shares that talent herself through a fun song with a relatable meaning. Wish you the best! Love the music!

[@MyJesus30]

as someone who has been thinking about dressing up as a pirate lately, this song is very relatable

[@gonersonpaws]

do it

[@IxelaBee.]

I use this song to motivate me into getting through my high school year and this part 0:10 makes me mentally picture me saying "im pretty tired of showing my mom a 60% average"
I listen to this ever morning at 6am while i wait for the bus. This song is so good, I really like "The Milk Carton" too

[@sienuhhh]

omg i met up with my online best friend this summer and she played this song from your tiktok and when i heard it i fell in love and saved it to my camera roll and OMG now its out omg omg

[@madilynmei]

[@kiwiwi_879]

All of my friends say that I have the soul of a pirate and that all my outfits look like a pirates so thank you so much for this song that I will listen to every day now ❤❤❤

[@Cat_in_bathtub7]

I wanna turn this song into a book honestly but I know it's literally copying the idea so I won't but I'm definitely inspired by it

Dress Like A Pirate Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What if I woke up and decided
I wanna dress like a pirate?
I'm pretty tired of folding clothes
Every day down at Target
[Chorus]
Well, maybe someday I'll sail the sea
Glad I woke up to write this song
If it makes me enough money
I'll be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
JT 'Sideways' Official Lyrics & Meaning | Genius Verified
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna spread any hate
Or do much plunderin' to ya
Just want a map that may or may not
Lead me to buried moolah
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I blame it all on my dad
He'd always urge me to play along
Makin' movies in the backyard
Oh, my heart is too far gone
[Chorus]
Well, maybe someday I'll sail the sea
Be the hero of my own tale
If I die before then maybe
I'll reincarnate as a whale
[Bridge]
Where's my green flag?
Where's my go ahead?
Wanna do something crazy before I'm dead
Lots of red flags
I'm ignorin' them
Don't need a ship
Guess a raft would be alright instead
Just get me out of here
Just get me out of here, oh
[Verse 3]
One day I woke up and decided
I wanna dress like a pirate
I'm pretty tired of folding clothes
Every day down at Target
[Chorus]
Well, maybe someday I'll sail that sea
Be the hero of my own life
If it makes me enough money
I'll finally quit my nine-to-five
[Outro]
Well, just you watch, I'ma sail that sea
Glad I woke up to write this song
When it makes me enough money
I'll be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

ugh this is hitting right now. Stuffs gotten bad here at home family wise and I just want to escape and do something else if I could, even if only in imagination (its not being a pirate for me right now, but moving to a certain fictional village in Romania. Comfort media go bbbrrrr)
Oh to be gone, gone gone, gone, gone.

[@LuvzMe2Death]

Hey! I absolutely love your music!! I posted an ASL cover of this- it would mean so much if you saw it! I also left a link for my cover of “the milk carton” in your short abt your new album (which is awesome, I keep putting it on shuffle)
