A Pirate Parody



Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun
fifteen men on a dead man's chest
yo ho ho and tip of a gun
skin him out, and they'll be blessed
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

Amid good men, there's cap'n Gross
as he turns ship with a bulbous nose
cross yor heart and never go close
lad's settle yor debt with Cap'n Gross
or get marooned yor arse & say adiĆ³s
as they say dead men tale no tales
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

Fifteen men will dance for the dead
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun
poke his eyes & be damned with a red
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

I'm sure he raped my long-lost wife (1st pirate)
I know he killed me in me dreams last night (2nd pirate)
he sung those songs which i neverrrr liked (3rd pirate)
he forgot to bow over our cap's thong
he gave him an eye and proved him wrong
now we'll skin him out for all night long
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

fifteen men will drink his blood
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun
their throats will cheer forever holy flood
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

carve his eyes and play lier's dice
sharpen knives and slice him twice
an ounce of flesh to be precise
his head on a pike & sing Nazi rhyme
gutt him out and take every dime
when all dig grave there's ain't any crime
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

fifteen men will dance on the grave
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun
they'll be called as sons of a brave
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

amid fifteen men there's boy with a frown
like our dead man, his color was brown
Aye! Aye! Lets all soon gun him down
forget our code and let him hang
wipe those songs, he ever sang
fare him well when he walks the plank
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun

Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun
fourteen men on a dead man's chest
yo ho ho and tip of a gun
skin him out, and they'll be blessed
Yo ho ho and a tip of a gun.
