Description
"Hook-handed men hear no lies!" -- so say the ugliest pirates ever to plunder Lake Buena Vista, and that's the saying for Pirates of Lake Buena Vista. Aboard your floater you'll see the representation of pirates who have gone to Davey Jones, and watch as others burn a popular scene. Scenes include:
- Toronto bayou
- Mummy pirate captain
- The kneeling of mayor Carlos
- "Amuse a Bride" auction
- A pirate drinking toilet with several terrified cats
Theme Song
The Pirates of Lake Buena Vista theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
Oh yo, oh yo, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we bury and burrow,
Hands up me hearties, oh yo.
We kidnap and ravage and then eat a churro,
Hands up me hearties, oh yo.
Oh yo, oh yo, a pirate's life for me.
