Voltaire - The Beast Of Pirate's Bay Lyrics
Gather weary traveler.I have a tale to tellIt may just save your life but only if you listen wellThere before the breakers and just around the wayThere's a sign. It says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"Some say he's a guppy a kid threw in the seaHe ate so many sailors now he's bigger than a treeHis teeth are as sharp as scissors his claws they are like knives!And if you think he's ugly just wait till you see his insides!Oh don't you sail and don't you rowAnd certainly don't you swim!Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him!He'll chew you up he'll spit you outSo you better stay away!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"Some say he's a serpent that came straight from hellTo eat the souls of pirates and other ne'er-do-wells.Some they don't believe it as for me? Iv'e got a hunchCause there used to be some pirates here... But he ate them all for lunch!Oh don't you sail and don't you rowAnd certainly don't you swim!Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him!He'll chew you up he'll spit you outSo you better stay away!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"Captain Hook, ya heard of him?He went to pirate's BayIt seems his little nemesis barely got awayHe reached into the water to grab at Peter Pan!There was a crunch and a scream!Now that scurvy captain's got hooks on both his hands!Oh don't you sail and don't you rowAnd certainly don't you swim!Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him!He'll chew you up he'll spit you outSo you better stay away!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"Blackbeard the pirate. Ya know for what he's feared?It's mostly for the dark imposing color of his beard.He saw the best and now nobody is scared of him because...His beard turned white and all agree, he looks like Santa Claus!Oh don't you sail and don't you rowAnd certainly don't you swim!Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him!He'll chew you up he'll spit you outSo you better stay away!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"Well now this tavern's empty...And there's only you and me.Now if you care, I'd like to share how this song came to beSo come a little closer if ya really want to knowThis very sad and woeful tale that happened so long ago...Well I was just a little boy... when I went to Pirate's BayWhile there I saw a creature who was very much dismayedWith a harpoon in his dorsal fin... and a hook stuck in his sideThis mighty whale was in such pain we both began to cryI pushed, and I shoved. But he wouldn't give wayInto the deeper waters of our shallow pirate's bayAll I could do to help him was to keep people awaySo I wrote the sign. it said "BEWARE: the Beast of Pirate's Bay!"!What did it say?Oh don't you sail and don't you rowAnd certainly don't you swim!Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him!He'll chew you up he'll spit you outSo you better stay away!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE:" HELL I should know I put it there!Heed the sign that says "BEWARE: The Beast of Pirate's Bay!"
