Chorus
Bridget loves her freedom, Yolanda treasure chests
And Saffron loves that smuggler man she never quite can best
And if the Feds can catch her, it’s prison or the Guild
‘stead of the Black’s expanses she’ll look out on her windowsill
She’d tried to con us several times, each time we got away
But there was something different, when we met her today
She didn’t come a’scheming, she didn’t ply her trade
Instead she came on bended knee and asked us for our aid
We know Saffron very well, and so it’s no surprise
to find her now a’fleeing from a mission gone awry
She’s killed Hera’s Governor, who took her to his bed
Just as she finishes her tale, we’re cornered by the Feds
If only Wash were living, he’d try one of his tricks
But I can’t do things like that yet, so now we’re in a fix
Jayne asks if we can sell her, but the Captain, he demurs
‘til speaks a veiled Companion, who demands to question her
The Fed turns over Saffron to the Companion’s care
We fear that now he’ll search our ship but ta ma deh we’re spared
I can’t but pity Saffron, the others don't agree
But I know what she's going through, a fugitive like me
Now unveils the Companion, and before us ‘Nara stands
And softly speaks to Saffron, as they try to understand
“I’ll tell them you escaped me,” her voice in my head rings
“After what they did to me, I don’t owe the Guild a thing”
The Guild Council is furious, and likewise are the feds
For Saffron’s in no training house, but with our ship has fled
Jayne calls her a Po-fu, Simon’s like to start a row
But there ain’t nothing to be done, she’s our Po-fu now
Clarissa loves her freedom, that’s what she’s made her name
She’s still making trouble but it’s not the same
She and Mal both get along, well, at least they try
It’s been weeks since he’s threatened to drop her from the sky
