Oh, the year was 2517

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

And a doctor came up with a cryo pack

To the brightest little Firefly in the black

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

Oh, Malcolm Reynolds plied the 'verse

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

With eight brave souls, all different, who

Would make for him Serenity's crew

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

Serenity was a magnificent sight

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

She'd a long high neck and a tail-end flare

And a shepherd with a head full of wild hair

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

On the doc's birthday we put to space

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

We were 240 days to Miranda world

Hiding the mad little psychic girl

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

On the very next day we sailed again

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

With a bloody great Reaver fleet in sight

With our one little cannon we made to fight

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

The Reavers chased us to the cloud

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

They were roaring, thrashing, drawing blades

But to lose them took Serenity two whole days

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

Then at length we broke atmo and dodged

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

The Alliance ships made an awful din

But with EMP the Reavers stove us in

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

Serenity shook and crashed on the slide

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

And Wash was ruined with a giant spike

And the others carried out a counterstrike

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers

So here I lay in me twenty-sixth year

How I wish I was on Sihnon now!

It's been six years since we lost the war

And I just made Silverhold from the Core

Gorram them all, I was told

We'd cruise the stars for Alliance gold

And we'd fire no guns, shed no tears

Now I'm a broken flan on a Silverhold pier

The last of Reynolds' privateers
