The Sensible Life of a Pirate

The sensible life of a pirate
The sensible life on a ship
Why do pirates sing, "Yo ho"?
Find out and stay for a bit

Yo-ho-ho and a one, two, three
A pirate's life is the life for me
Yo-ho-ho and a one, two, three
A painted ship on a painted sea

Dropping anchor in a foreign shore
Swab the deck, who could ask for more?
Search for treasure in exotic land
Who can do it? A pirate can

Pirates are jolly (Hey)
Pirates are free (Hey)
Pirates are smelly (What?)
Pirates sail the sea (Yeah)

Yo-ho-ho and a one and two
A pirate's life is the life for you
Yo-ho-ho and a one and two
There are pirate things that you just can't do

A pirate will never wrap presents (No)
A pirate won't wear a top hat (No)
A pirate won't tell you a knock-knock joke
There are other things that they are good at (Aye)

To raise the sail and hoist the main
We might never pass this way again
We're pirates traveling near and far
And our favorite letter is "R" (Argh, argh)

Yo-ho-ho and a one, two, three
A pirate's life is the life for me
Yo-ho-ho and a one, two, three
A painted ship on a painted sea

We be sensible pirates (Hey)
We be jolly and free (Hey)
We be dirty and smelly (What?)
We be sailing the seas (Yeah)

Yo-ho-ho and a one, two, three
A pirate's life is the life for me
Yo-ho-ho and a one and two
A pirate's life is the life for you
