And then he was dead,
That unlucky pirate called John.

Who had a pet bird called Sim,
They sat in the sun,
And had lots of fun,
That sunburnt, old, pirate called Jim .

Who had a great fall and was ill,

There was a young pirate from France,
Who said he loved to have a dance,
He got off his boat,
When it wasn't a float,
And had a dance in his new pants.
There was an old pirate named Bop,
That thought he was one of the top,
He sat on a chair,
And ate a juicy pear,
That silly old pirate named Bop. |
