In Honor of Talk Like A Pirate Day

[kiralamouse]

We are the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything,
We just stay at home and lie around,
And if you a-ask us to do anything,
We'll just te-ell you -
We don't do anything!

And I've never been to Greenland,
And I've never been to Denver,
And I've never buried treasure in St. Louis or St. Paul,
And I've never been to Moscow,
And I've never been to Tampa,
And I've never been to Boston in the fall!

'Cause we're the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything,
We just stay at home and lie around,
And if you a-ask us to do anything,
We'll just te-ell you -
We don't do anything!

And I never hoist the mainstay,
And I never swab the poop deck,
And I never veer to starboard 'cause I never sail at all,
And I've never walked the gangplank,
And I've never owned a parrot,
And I've never been to Boston in the fall!

'Cause we're the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything,
We just stay at home and lie around,
And if you a-ask us to do anything,
We'll just te-ell you -
We don't do anything!

And I've never plucked a rooster,
And I'm not too good at ping-pong,
And I've never thrown my mashed potatoes up against a wall,
And I've never kissed a chipmunk,
And I've never gotten head lice,
And I've never been to Boston in the fall!

VeggieTales pauses to talk here; I prefer Reliant K's version:

Pirate Captain's log, two thousand and two: Who be this band Reliant K, and why be they so full of contradictions?

We don't know what he did,
But we're down with Captain Kidd!
We don't wake up before lunch,
But we all eat Captain Crunch!
We don't smoke, we don't chew,
We watch Captain Kangaroo!

And all back together again...

And I've never licked a spark plug,
And I've never sniffed a stink bug
And I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball
And I've never bathed in yogurt,
And I don't look good in leggings...
AND WE'VE NEVER BEEN TO BOSTON IN THE FALL!!!!!!!!

Arr. That be the life, matey.

Arr. That be the life, matey.

Says the young lady who not two hours ago remarked: Thou saucy varlet, thou mayest speak as a villainous pirate; I shall speak as a well-bred gentlewoman and pay no attention to such impertinent games.

Despite the fact that that was really terrible, I DO have to admit it was amusing.

You really ought to know by now that I'm contrary; when commanded by an away message to talk like a pirate, I will naturally refuse to do any such thing.

But hey, gotta close off the LJ in the spirit of the day. ;)
