*******************************************
Oh, I love to sail the ocean,
With my flag that inspired emotion,
Crew: With its smiling pile of skull and bones,
Smashing hearts with a violent, stabbing motion.
And I love to escape detection,
And to win my crew's affection.
Crew: Which was nothing to do with the twelve guns he wore
On his belt that were for protection.
