Running Wild is a German heavy metal band, formed in 1976 in Hamburg. They were part of the German metal scene to emerge in the early to mid-1980s. Over the course of their career, they have released fifteen studio albums, three live albums, five compilation albums, and six singles/EPs. Although their earlier releases contained Satanic themes and imagery, Gerald "Preacher" Warnecke, the guitar player of the band, was studying theology at the time and is now a vicar in Cologne.
In 1987, the band released the album Under Jolly Roger, which was a switch to pirate-based and historical themes, creating and influencing the later named Pirate metal sub genre of heavy metal in the 2000s in the process. While the historical lyrics were very superficial at first, the lyrics for later albums were intensively researched, by Rolf Kasparek in particular.

Metal School - Running Wild: The Origin of Pirate Metal
Pirate metal has become it's own subgenre with several bands falling into the category, but there was one band that was swashbuckling and plundering for booty before all others, even before 1987 when they released the first pirate themed metal album, Under Jolly Roger. So weigh anchor and hoist the sails, me buckos, as we take a look at the life and albums of the very first pirate metal band, Running Wild.

"Prisoner Of Our Time" off German metal band Running Wild's debut album titled "Gates To Purgatory" released in 1984.
Lyrics:
Paint in subways
Paint in busses
With your Edding big black pentagrams
Black metal graffitis are thrown against the wall
Crucifixes are inversed
Pictures are signed by the triple six
Black metal art is shocking law 'n' order man
Rockers of the underground
Black and heavy is our sound
Lost the money
Lost the job
Being catched by the cop
I am living not the role that you wanna give to me
Living life
My own way
Not tomorrow, but today
You are against me, but I tell you K. M. A.!!!
Rockers of the underground
Black and heavy is our sound
We are prisoners of our time
But we are still alive
Fight for the freedom, Fight for the right
We are Running Wild
