- Maleficent's Landing
- Angel drinking in a bar
- Pirate ship battle
- Pirate chase
- Captain Jack Girl's treasure
Theme Song
The Pirates of America theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
No Joe, no Joe, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we bury and burrow,
Choke up me hearties, no Joe.
We kidnap and ravage and then eat a churro,
Choke up me hearties, no Joe.
No Joe, no Joe, a pirate's life for me.
