When I was a young lad
My father said to me
Arr, lend an ear and learn some pirate history
Once a fearsome pirate ruled the seven seas
He was your great-great-great-grand-pappy, Quint Skurvy
He told me tall tales of his ill-begotten gains
But the greatest treasure of them all
Still haunts me to this day
I'll make you swab the deck
And then I'll throw you in the brig
I swear I'll make you walk the plank
To right the wrong you did
The day you mess with Skurvy
You'll wish you were never born
When the coconut is mine
Then you'll feel this pirate's scorn
He hid it in an idol
Where it stayed for many years
But the eye of Inka Dinka Doo
Did shed the crystal tear
It laid upon the ground until
Much to my surprise
A stupid ape just wandered by
And snatched my treasured prize
He discovered it possessed extraordinary power
And stealing it from Skurvy would be his darkest hour
I'll make you swab the deck
And then I'll throw you in the brig
I swear I'll make you walk the plank
To right the wrong you did
The day you mess with Skurvy
You'll wish you were never born
When the coconut is mine
Then you'll feel this pirate's scorn
Alright then crew
Let's show these filthy landlubbers
What we're made of
Are ya ready?
Let 'er rip
I'll make you swab the deck
And then I'll throw you in the brig
I swear I'll make you walk the plank
To right the wrong you did
The day you mess with Skurvy
You'll wish you were never born
When the coconut is mine
Then you'll feel this pirate's scorn
When the coconut is mine
Then you'll feel this pirate's scorn
