Pirates: A rollicking band of Pirates we,

Who, tired of tossing on the sea,

Are trying their hands at a burglaree,

With weapons grim and gory.

Sergeant: Hush, hush

I hear them on the manor poaching;

With stealthy steps the Pirates are approaching!

Pirates: We are not coming for plate or gold;

A story Genral Stanley told;

We seek a penalty fifty fold,

For General Stanley's story!

Police: They seek a penalty

Pirates: Fifty fold! We seek a penalty

Police: Fifty fold!

Pirates: "We" /Police: "They"

All: seek a penalty fifty fold,

For General Stanley's story!

Sergeant: They come in force,

With stealthy stride;

Our obvious course is now to hide!

Ta-ran-ta-ra, ra-ran-ra-ra!
