HOOK:

We'll cook a cake quite large 

and fill each layer in between

with icing mixed with poison

til it turns a tempting green



PIRATES: 

icing mixed with poison

til it turns a tempting green



HOOK:

we'll place it near the house

just where the boys are sure to come

and being greedy they won't care to

question such a plum



PIRATES: 

the boys who have no mother sweet



HOOK: 

no one to show them their mistake

Pirates: won't know it's dangerous to eat



HOOK: 

so damp and rich a cake-



and so before the winking of an eye

those boys will eat that poison cake

and one by one they'll die-



PIRATES:

they'll die, they'll die, they'll die, they'll die, they'll die-!



ALL:

OLE'!!!
