So CO Pirate Day Socks...

You may create a sock for Talk Like a Pirate Day. You MUST still follow all of the TOS! But create a sock, post in your pirate-speak and have fun!

PM me with the sock that you are using. If you don't I'll have Mods all over you!

To create a sock, Click Logoff next to your name. Then create a new username and login as that new user.

You should stop using your sock after Friday except in the Official Talk Like a Pirate thread on this or other boards.

Be careful about using your sock in non-pirate talk threads. It could get you in trouble! You're welcome to use your sock anywhere on the Springs board for the duration of the weekend.

Have fun! Oh, and try NOT to let people figure out who you really are! It's more fun to be anonymous!

 

Ahoy! 'Tis joyous to be a pirate!

 

Sing along, Maties!


Long John:
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

Pirates:
Hey ho ho
You'll cruise to foreign shores
And you'll keep your mind and body sound
By working out of doors


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

Pirates and Long John:
And when you're a professional pirate

Bad Polly:
That's what the job's about

Long John:
(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

Pirates:
Hey ho ho
We're honorable men
And before we lose our tempers we will always count to ten

Long John:
On occasion there may be someone you have to execute

Pirates and Long John:
But when you're a professional pirate

Clueless Morgan:
You don't have to wear a suit

Mad Monty:
I could have been a surgeon
I like taking things apart

Bad Polly:
I could have been a lawyer
But I just had too much heart

Clueless Morgan:
I could have been in politics
Cause I've always been a big spender

Brando Pirate:
And me...I could have been a contender

Long John:
Some say that pirates steal and should be feared and hated
I say we're victims of bad press it's all exaggerated
We'd never stab you in the back, we'd never lie or cheat
We're just about the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet
(Tell the truth, lad. Do you really think that 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!)

Pirates and Long John:
Hey ho ho
It's one for all for one
And we'll share and share alike with you and love you like a song
We're gentlemen of fortune and that's what we're proud to be
And when you're a professional pirate

Long John:
You'll be honest, brave and free
The soul of decency
You'll be loyal and fair and on the square
And most importantly

Pirates and Long John:
When you're a professional pirate
You're always in the best of company


Ah, not'in like a good Pirate song to lift yer heels!
