Karaoké A Professional Pirate Muppet Treasure Island (Tim Curry)

When I was just a lad looking for my true vocation my father said now son this choice deserves deliberation

Though you could be a doctor or perhaps a financier my boy, why not consider a more challenging career

Hey ho ho you'll cruise to foreign shores

Ahahah sing it lad

And you'll keep your mind show him you've been practicing and body sound

By working out of doors

True friendship and adventure are what we can't live without

And when you're and when you're a professional pirate a professional pirate

That's what the job's about upstage, lads this is my only number now take Sir Francis Drake

The Spanish all despise him but to the British he's a hero and they idolize him it's how you look at buccaneers

That makes them bad or good and I see us as members of a noble brotherhood ho

Hey ho ho

Oh I love it we're honorable men this poetry notion

And before we lose our tempers we will

Always count to ten

On occasion, there May be someone you have to execute

And when you're a professional pirate

You don't have to wear a suit what

I could have been a surgeon

I like taking things apart

I could have been a lawyer but I just had too much heart

I could have been in politics 'cos I've always been

A big spender and me

I could've been a contender

Ahah some say that pirates steal and should be feared and hated

I say we're victims of bad press

That's all exaggerated we never stab you in the back we never lie or cheat we're just, in fact, the nicest guy

You ever want to meet tell the truth, lad do you really think the Captain and the Squire are

Planning to share the treasure with the likes of us and we being the rightful owners who shed our blood getting it here

Join us lad donate your compass to the treasure hunt and get a full share

Hey ho ho it's one for all for one

Hey ho ho it's one for all for one and we'll share and share alike with you

And we'll share and share alike with you

And love you like a son we're gentlemen of fortune and

And love you like a son we're gentlemen of fortune and that's what we're bound to be and when you're

That's what we're bound to be and when you're

A professional pirate you'll be honest, brave, and free

A professional pirate the soul of decency you'll be loyal and fair

And on the square but most importantly

When you're when you're a professional pirate a professional pirate

You're always in the best

You're always in the best of company of company
