SONG 1 - Seasick Pirate

When I was three,

I ran away to sea

Joined a jolly pirate lot

Though I wasn't very tough,

I was small enough

To sleep inside a lobster pot

And I had hopes,

when I knew the ropes

I might win the Pirate Crown

The trouble is I found,

when my feet were off the ground

I couldn't keep my dinner down

I'm just a seasick Pirate,

know what I mean

Whenever it's rough

then I go green

My tummy goes funny

and my legs go next

I open my mouth

and clear the decks!

Seasick pirate,

pity my fate

When everybody knows what you just ate

From the coast of France to the

Spanish Main

The cry goes up, "he's sea-sick again!"

Yes, when I hold that Sacred Coconut

It'll cure what's wrong inside my gut

'Cos the magic in that

magic fruit

Will make my stomach

resolute!

Instead of Seasick Pirate, then I'll be

The finest Pirate sailing on the sea

And even if there's waves and wind and rain

I'll never be seasick again!

SONG 2 - X Marks the Spot

X Marks the Spot!

Where we'll find his hideaway

This map is all we've got

But it's all we need,

yokay?

We've gotta get through the

terrible waves,

The wind, the rain and the

scary black caves

But X Marks the Spot!

So come on then you lot!

X Marks The Spot

X Marks The Island

X Marks Long Gone Silver's Hut

X Marks The Spot

X Marks The Island

X Marks The Sacred Coconut!

There are choppy seas ahead

We must be brave and strong

If you'd rather stay in bed

Then please don't come along

We've gotta get past the Ravaging Rocks

The Harbour Of Doom

and the Bay Of Hard Knocks

But X Marks the Spot!

So let's show'em what we've got!

X Marks The Spot

X Marks The Island

X Marks Long Gone Silver's Hut

X Marks The Spot

X Marks The Island

X Marks The Sacred Coconut!

POEM 1 - Rita Conchita

I'm Rita Conchita

I've got smelly feet-a

It could be the heat

I suppose

My friends always tell me

But I just can't smell me

'Cos I've got a beak

not a nose!

POEM 2 - Rum Rap

I like Rum

I like it in my tum

I like to lick my lips

and go yum yum yum

I like to drink it fast

I like to drink it slow

Ready? Steady?

Here we go!

Rum Rap,

hands clap

Swig it down

and take a nap

Mind you don't fall in the sea!

(Burp) Oh!

It wasn't me!
