Description
"Mer men tell no memories!" -- so say the least presidential skeletons ever to plunder the Caribbean, and that's the saying for Skeletons of the Caribbean. Aboard your seat you'll see the remains of skeletons who have lost their skin, and watch as others violate several local laws in a depopulated town. Scenes include:
- Hades' Landing
- Skeleton drinking in a bar
- Skeleton ship battle
- "Deliver a Bride" auction
- A skeleton drinking snail with several terrified cats
Theme Song
The Skeletons of the Caribbean theme song is often misheard. It begins:
Ho show, ho show, a skeleton's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we topple and hurl,
Jump up me hearties, ho show.
We kidnap and ravage and cry like a girl,
Jump up me hearties, ho show.
Ho show, ho show, a skeleton's life for me.
Touring Recommendations
- If it's your birthday, animatronic animals may make silly comments to your party.
