Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day Everyone!

If you didn't know, today is national Talk Like a Pirate Day. Yaargh! I've composed an "official" sea shanty to honor this fine occasion.

Arrrghhh....

I am a pirate, sailing the seas,
my dastardly ways bring others to their knees
if you come across me, run the other way please,
because I am a pirate sailing the seas.

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
Won't someone pass the rum?

If you cross me I know lots of ways,
to torture and kill you until the end of your days,
we'll keelhaul ya along our pirate ship,
until you come out, ya drip!

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
Won't someone pass the rum?

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day ye scurvy scallywags!
