Seven Deadly Sins Lyrics


Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be freeSo sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sinsSo the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
Johnny strummed his Tommy gun
Left blastin' through the ceilingWhat became of rebels
Who sang for you and me?
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for libertySufferers who suffer all
Can swim upon the desert
Avarice has ravaged all
In spite of good intentionsDon't fill your mouth with gluttony
For pride will surely swell
But nothing's unforgevin

In the four corners of HellSo sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be freeSail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sinsI envy and it's evil twin
It crept in bed with slander
Idiots, they gave advice
Both sloth it gave no answerAnger kills the human soul
With bitter tales of lust
While Pavlov's dogs keep chewin'
On the legs they never trustOh, sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be freeSail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sinsBut it's the only life we'll know
Blagards to the bone
So don't wreck yourself, take an honest grip
For there's more tales beyond the shoreAh, the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
In and out came crawlin' out
And spewed upon the ceilingWhat became of rebels?
That sang for you and me
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for libertySail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be freeSail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sinsSail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be freeSail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sinsSeven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins

Flogging Molly is a seven-piece Irish American celtic punk band that formed in Los Angeles, in 1997 and is currently signed to SideOneDummy Records. The band consists of Dave King (vocals, guitar, banjo, bodhrán), Bridget Regan-King (fiddle, uillean pipes, vocals), Dennis Casey (guitar, vocals), Matt Hensley (accordion, concertina), Nathen Maxwell (bass, vocals), Bob Schmidt (mandolin, banjo) and George Schwindt (drums, percussion).

Flogging Molly has released four major studio albums, Swagger, Drunken Lullabies, Within a Mile of Home, and Float, as well as an independent live album entitled Alive Behind the Green Door. Also, they released a CD/DVD combo entitled Whiskey On A Sunday, which included a CD with acoustic tracks of many of the band's songs and a brand new studio track, "Laura". They have toured with the Warped Tour and Larry Kirwan's American Fléadh Festival. They also contributed to the Rock Against Bush project. Also, as of late they have done extensive touring with the self proclaimed gypsy punk band, Gogol Bordello, which is also signed under SideOneDummy Records.

Their music is heavily influenced by such bands as The Pogues,The Dubliners, Johnny Cash and ranges from boisterous punk rock like the pirate-themed "Salty Dog" and "Seven Deadly Sins," or the defiant "What's Left of the Flag" and "Rebels of the Sacred Heart" to more somber songs like "Far Away Boys", "The Sun Never Shines (On Closed Doors)", or "Death Valley Queen". In the Whiskey On A Sunday DVD King describes the band's music as a '21st century version of The Dubliners.'

The driving forces behind the music tend to be Dave King's gravelly voice and Bridget's manic fiddling. Prior to forming Flogging Molly, Dave King was the vocalist for Fastway, a late 80s-early 90s heavy metal band, featuring guitarist Eddie Clarke of Motörhead.

The band released a DVD and a full-length album entitled "Whiskey on a Sunday" on July 25th 2006.

The DVD "Whiskey on a Sunday" contains a two hour documentary that gives viewers insight into how the band members found each other and also talks about the members' attitude towards life, events that have shaped their lives and their motivation for making music.

The band released "Float" on March 4, 2008. It includes the band's first two chart hits: "Requiem for a Dying Song" (#35 Billboard Modern Rock) and "Float" (#40 on the same chart). During the tour for the album, vocalist Dave King married the band's fiddle player Bridget Regan in Tokyo, Japan.

The Speed of Darkness Songfacts says the band's fifth album, Speed of Darkness was released on May 31, 2011 by the band's own record label, Borstal Beat Records.The set was recorded at Echo Mountain, an old church building turned recording studio in Asheville, North Carolina. It was produced by Ryan Hewitt, who has also worked with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and The Avett Brothers.
