The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything

[Fancy]

Pa Grape, Mr. Lunt, Larry:

We are the pirates who don't do anything

We just stay at home and lie around

And if you ask us to do anything

We'll just tell you

We don't don anything

Pa Grape:

Well I've never been to Greenland

And I've never been to Denver

And I've never buried treasure in St. Louis or St. Paul

And I've never been Moscow

And I've never been to Tampa

And I've never been Boston in the fall

Chorus w/ Pa Grape, Mr. Lunt, and Larry

Mr. Lunt:

And I've never hoist the mainstay

And I've never swabbed the poopdeck

And I've never veer to starboard 'cause I never sail at all

And I've never walked the gangplank

And I've never owned a parrot

And I've never been to Boston in the fall

Chorus

Larry:

Well I've never plucked a rooster

And I'm not too good at ping pong

And I've never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall

And I've never kissed a chipmunk

And I've never gotten head lice

And I've never been to Boston in the fall

Pa Grape: Huh? What are you talkin' about? What's a rooster and mashed potatoes have to do with being a pirate?

Mr. Lunt: Hey, that's right. We're supposed to sing about pirate-y things.

Larry: Oh!

Pa Grape: And whose ever kissed a chipmunk? That's just nonsense! Why even bring it up? Am I right? What do you think?

Mr. Lunt: I think you look like Cap'n Crunch.

Pa Grape: Huh? No, I don't.

Mr. Lunt: Do too.

Pa Grape: Do not.

Mr. Lunt: You're making me hungry.

Pa Grape: That's it. You're walking the plank.

Mr. Lunt: Says who?

Pa Grape: Says the Cap'n, that's who.

Mr. Lunt: Oh yeah? Aye aye, Cap'n Crunch! hehehehe

Pa Grape: Argh!

Mr. Lunt: Yipes!

Larry:

And I've never licked a spark plug

And I've never sniffed a stink bug

And I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball

And I've never bathed in yogurt

And I don't look good in leggings

Pa Grape: You just don't get it.

Pa Grape, Mr. Lunt, and Larry:

And we've never been to Boston in the fall

Pa Grape: Pass the chips! Whose got the remote control?

Larry: Here it is!

Mr. Lunt: Time for Geraldo!

Pa Grape: It's definitely time for Dragnet.

Mr. Lunt: Oh, I don't like this show.

Larry: Hey, look! I found a quarter!

[lady snow]

[Charity]

Oh god yes, i downloaded that alone with others on a cd called "Pirate songs".

Another very funny one is the secret of monkey island, know that one?

[Fancy]

no, I don't. I know this one because my daughter loves the Veggietales.

[Charity]

You can download the full mp3 here

[Fancy]

oh cool! thanks!

[William Brand]

Niiiiiice, and strangely appropriate for virtual pirates.

[Bonnie Red Weasel]

no, I don't. I know this one because my daughter loves the Veggietales.

The Veggies rock. We got the "Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" playset pretty much the second it came out. It's a nice little ship, and you can even fire sporting equipment from the cannon.

Kung Pao Chicken, Mongolian Chicken, Sweet N' Sour Chicken....do the Mooshu!!

[Bonnie Red Weasel]

Moo Moo Shu Moo Moo Moo Moo Shu Shu

Moo Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu Moo Moo -

STOP!

Break a fortune cookie...

[Captain Charlotte Savvy]

Alright, I'll ask already, because I can't figure it out by me onesies no matter how hard I try ...

Why do the VeggieTales characters SING a song called, "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything," and is the song related to the song by the same title as sung by Reliant K? I have been wondering about this ever since I DLed the Reliant K song some time ago ... but then people keep talking about it being a VeggieTales song, and I've gotten quite confused about the connection ...

[Rogue Mermaid]

I don't know.

But I do know that if you hear the "Song of the Sayboo" it's stuck in your head the rest of the day.

[Mad_Molly]

Veggie Tails did it origionaly, Reliant K covered it. I guess it sorta makes sense, seeing as Reliant K is a Christian band and Veggie Tails is a Christian cartoon, so... yeah. Anyway, both versions rock my socks.

[Bonnie Red Weasel]

I don't know.

But I do know that if you hear the "Song of the Sayboo" it's stuck in your head the rest of the day.

That's actually "Song of the Cebu"

[Diego Santana de la Vega]

ok so where does this thread go from here?

Would someone please post the words to this shanty that rocks somesones socks off?

[Rogue Mermaid]

I don't know.

But I do know that if you  hear the "Song of the Sayboo" it's stuck in your head the rest of the day.

That's actually "Song of the Cebu"

What can I say? Hooked on Phonics did not work for me! :angry:

[Bonnie Red Weasel]

nah - just probably goes to prove how insanely hooked i am on the Veggies

sing it with me now -

SAAAAAY-BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

"If you like to talk to tomatoes, if a squash can make you smile.

If you like to waltz with potatoes, up and down the produce isle......

[Mission]

And I've never licked a spark plug

And I've never sniffed a stink bug

And I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball

You know, I've lived my life according to those lyrics.

"Does the hippo see them? Is the poor mute cebu successful in communicating the imminent danger to the other passengers? Is the boy injured? Why is the sad cebu sad? Is the canoe wood or aluminum?"

"Oh look! There's me and Bob at Sea World! Oh, wow. Forgot about that one. There's me and that bull again."
