Description
"Strange men tell no stories!" -- so say the least presidential pirates ever to plunder the Basement, and that's the byline for Pirates of the Basement. Aboard your yacht you'll see the images of pirates who have met their maker, and watch as others fire cannons at an unwelcoming seaport. Scenes include:
- Tim Burton's Landing
- Stabed button
- The seething of mayor Carlos
- Pirate chase
- A pirate drinking rum with several terrified individuals
Theme Song
The Pirates of the Basement theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
Ho show, ho show, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we lay and we cluck,
Use up me hearties, ho show.
We kidnap and ravage and quack like a duck,
Use up me hearties, ho show.
Ho show, ho show, a pirate's life for me.
