Avast, helmsman, you scurvy dog, hard a-starboard, this ship don’t make turns to port. Try that agin and you’ll be meetin’ with the cat.
What’s a pirate’s favorite subject in school? Arrrrrt!

Chaired by John McCain.
This calls for a Letter of Marque.
I be going to Arrrrrrrby's for lunch.
“(Captain) And you probably don’t want no groggin’ and revelin’ and wrenchin’ and rummin’ either I suppose?”
That’s “wenchin’” not “wrenchin”’, ya land-lubbin’ scurvy-dog!!
Open season on the open seas and
Captain says no prisoners please
Skull and crossbones on a background of black
We aint stealin were just takin back
Chorus:
We aint stealin were just takin back
Very simple plan of attack
Its our job and a labor of love
Take it home to the up above
We aint stealin were just takin back
Very simple statement of fact
Call it pillage or call it plunder
Were takin it back from them boys down under
Hit us hard, took our treasure
That was the worst thing they could do
It will be our great pleasure
To take it back from that captain kangaroo
Yo ho ho, and a bottle of suds
Its a pirates fight we choose
No we dont want a bucket of blood
Just a cup is all we could use
Just a cup
The sails are up and the bets are down
Lets lighten up this harbor town
By hook or crook or new design
Were streakin for that finish line
Chorus:
We aint stealin were just takin back
Very simple plan of attack
Its our job and a labor of love
Take it home to the up above
We aint stealin were just takin back
Very simple statement of fact
Call it pillage or call it plunder
Were takin it back from them boys down under
— spoken:
We ask ourselves when we get in a fix
What would popeye do in a tight spot like this
Hed race for his true love and easily win it
In an old spinach can with a mast stuck in it
Lift us up, take us high
Time to let our spirits fly
Lift us up, take us high
Let us sail until we die
Lift us up, take us high
Let us float above the foam
Let our sails fill the sky
We are takin our sweet treasure home
Take it back
Were takin it baaaaaaaack
Take it back!

YOU CAN’T BE A PIRATE
(Don Freed)
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses an ear.
It drips down your neck, and it falls on the deck,
‘Til someone shouts, “Oy, what’s this ‘ere?”
You can’t wear your glasses, you can’t poll the lasses,
Your friends have to shout so you’ll hear;
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses an ear.
Chorus:
It’s all part of being a pirate
You can’t be a pirate with all of your parts.
Oh, it’s all part of being a pirate
You can’t be a pirate with all of your parts.
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses an eye.
It stings like the blazes, it makes you pull faces,
You can’t let your mates see you cry.
A dashing black patch will cover the hatch
And make sure that the socket stays dry;
Being a pirate is all fun and games
‘Til somebody loses an eye.
Chorus
Being a pirate is all fun and games
‘Til somebody loses a hand.
It spurts and it squirts and it jolly well hurts,
Pain only a pirate could stand.
The fash’nable look is a nice metal hook,
But now you can’t play in the band.
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses a hand.
Chorus
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses a leg.
It hurts like the dickens, your pace never quickens,
Hopping around on a peg.
Ask your sweetheart to marry, but too long you’ve tarried,
‘Cause now you can’t kneel down and beg.
Being a pirate is all fun and games
‘Til somebody loses a leg.
Chorus
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses a ‘wotsit’,
Though you didn’t choose it, you don’t want to lose it,
You’re hoping that somebody spots it,
Then the ‘Doc’ comes along and he sews it back on,
Or he ties it on tight - then he knots it!
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
‘Til somebody loses a ‘wotsit’.
Chorus
It makes me quite irate- it hardly seems fair,
You can’t be a pirate if you are all there!
An early Halloween joke:
A cute lil’ boy comes up the walk in his pirate costume an’ says “Trick or treat!”.
The lady of the house opens the door an’ says “Well hello, little pirate. Where are your buccaneers?”
‘e says “under me buckin’ ‘at!!”
I think Bamboose’s celebratory photo belongs on this thread.
I’ve done a bit of smugglin’
And I’ve run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy Miami
But I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
