SING OUT!

[Nightfire]

YO ho, yo ho,
A pirate's life for me...

[Icefire]

Horray for Pirates! I went on that ride a few weeks ago.

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me!
We pillage, we plunder we rifle and loot,
Drink up me hearties, yo ho!
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
Drink up me hearties, yo ho!

That's my favorite ride! I see something new every time I go on it!

We're devils and black sheep! We're really bad eggs
Drink up my hearties, yo ho!

[Lily]

We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mummies and dads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me!

[Icefire]

We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mummies and dads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me!

Don't think I know that verse 

[Lily]

We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,

Aye, but we're loved by our mummies and dads,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me!

Don't think I know that verse 

It's the last one. Here are the complete lyrics.

[Nightfire]

"Oh, I once knew a squirrel who would seek her foes,
And she would always shout YAYALAHO!
She was scary, and fierce, and downright mad,
And she was the best character Brian ever had!
Oh, let me hear ye do it with me,
Let me hear ye proudly crow.
Let me hear ye stop for tea,
To shout YAYALAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

That is an ancient dittie sung my black squirrels all over.
I just wrote it meself right now, if'n ye kin believe it.

Let me hear ye proudly crow.
Let me hear ye stop for tea,

Nightfire pulled a Gonff!

[Nightfire]

Gee, thanks.  I like to write music and poems and riddles and books.
Here is my song:

"I am a Sagicious Squirrel,
One who never ever has a quarrel.
But if'n ye hate whatever I write,
Then there will be stars in your eyes ringing bright!"

[Icefire]

YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWER WHEN YOU ANSWER TO THE CALL!!!!!!  One of my least favorite Celtic Woman songs...

[Nightfire]

Excuse me? How can you not love The Call? I'm not holding anything against you, but I'm honestly curious as to your reason.

"DOWN GOES THE PAW AND UP RISES THE DUST,
KEEP THY COURAGE, HOLD THY TRUST!
COME TO OUR JOURNEY'S END WE MUST,
MARCHING THE HIGH ROAD TOGETHER!"

[Mad Maudie]

We're going at it tonight tonight
There's a party on the rooftop top of the world
Tonight tonight and were dancing on the edge of the Hollywood sign
I don't know if I'll make it but watch how good I'll fake it
Its all right, all right, tonight, tonight

You got me singing like
Woah, come on, ohh, it doesn't matter, woah, everybody now, ohh

Just don't stop let's keep the beat pumpin'
Keep the beat up, lets drop the beat down
It's my party dance if I want to
We can get crazy let it all ou

There was a red-back on the toilet seat
When I was there last night,
I didn’t see him in the dark,
But boy! I felt his bite!
I jumped high up into the air,
And when I hit the ground,
That crafty red-back spider
Wasn’t nowhere to be found.

I rushed in to the missus,
Told her just where I’d been bit,
She grabbed the cut throat razor blade,
And I nearly took a fit.
I said, “Just forget what’s on your mind,
And call a doctor please,
‘Cause I’ve got a feeling that your cure
Is worse than the disease.”

There was a red-back on the toilet seat
When I was there last night,
I didn’t see him in the dark,
But boy! I felt his bite!
And now I’m here in hospital,
A sad and sorry plight,
And I curse that red-back spider
On the toilet seat last night.

I can’t lay down, I can’t sit up,
And I don’t know what to do,
And all the nurses think it’s funny,
But that’s not my point of view.
I tell you it’s embarrassing,
And that’s to say the least
That I’m to sick to eat a bite,
While that spider had a feast!

And when I get back home again,
I tell you what I’ll do,
I’ll make that red-back suffer
For the pain I’m going through.
I’ve had so many needles
That I’m looking like a sieve,
And I promise you that spider
Hasn’t very long to live!

There was a red-back on the toilet seat
When I was there last night,
I didn’t see him in the dark,
But boy! I felt his bite!
And now I’m here in hospital,
A sad and sorry plight,
And I curse that red-back spider
On the toilet seat last night.

I like that song.

"Did you want me to change?
Well I'd change for good
And I want you to know that you'll always get your way
I wanted to say...

Don't you shiver
Don't you shiver
Sing it loud and clear
I'll always be waitin' for you

Yeah I'll always be waiting for you
Yeah I'll always be waiting for you
Yeah I'll always be waiting for you, for you
I will always be waiting...

And it's you I see but you don't see me
And it's you I hear so loud and so clear
I sing it loud and clear
And I'll always be waiting for you...." ~Coldplay, "Shiver". Epic song.

[Lily]

Tiria, that song is great!

[Tiria Wildlough]

Thanks!
'...that I'm too sick to eat a bite, while that spider had a feast.' XD
Here's another one:

Now old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own
He had an old yellow cat that wouldn't leave home
Tried everything he knew to do to keep the cat away
Took him up to Canada and told him for to stay...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay way

On the telegraph wire the birds were sittin' in a bunch
Saw an even number, thought he'd' have `em for his lunch
Climbed softly up the pole, until he reached the top
Put his foot upon the electric wire, tied him in a knot...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

This old cat had company out in the backyard
Somebody threw a boot, and threw it awful hard
Hit the cat behind the ear and he thought it was a slight
And down came a brick and knocked him out of sight...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They threw him in the kennel where the dog was asleep
And the bones of cats lay piled in a heap
That ol' kennel burst apart and the dog flew out the side
With his ears chewed off and holes in his hide...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They sneaked into the shop with the butcher not around
And they dropped him in the hopper where the meat was ground
The old cat disappeared with a blood-curdling shriek
And that shop's hamburger tasted furry for a week...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him in a cotton sack and give him to a girl
Who was startin' on a bicycle all around the world
Well over there in China, a terrible wreck was found
She's singin' now in heaven with the angels all around...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Now this cat was a terror and they thought it would be best
To give him to a feller who was goin' out West
Train ran around a curve and hit a broken rail
Not a blessed soul aboard the train lived to tell the tale...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They gave the old cat to the man in the balloon
And they told him to give him to the man in the moon
Well the balloon, it busted and everybody said,
"Ten miles away they picked a man up dead"...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Well at last they found the way this cat they'd really fix
They put him in an orange crate on Highway Sixty-Six
Come a ten ton truck with a twenty ton load
Scattered pieces of the orange crate a mile down the road...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him on a boat bound for Cambridge town
They thought with all the rain there, he'd surely drown
When the rain come down on the ninety-second day
The whole darn city just a-floated out the bay...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Now the farmer on the corner said he'd shoot the cat on sight
And he loaded up his gun with nails and dynamite
And he hid in the garden till the cat come around
Seven little pieces of the man was all they found...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him on the White House lawn, I'll tell you the reason why
They thought with all those golf balls flyin' there, he'd surely die
The very next morning, what do you think they found
Ninety-four squirrels lyin' dead upon the ground...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They took him down to Cape Canaveral and they put him in a place
And they shot him in a satellite way into space
They thought that cat was beyond human reach
Then they got a phone call from Miami Beach, sayin'...

The cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Sorry, I seem to be hooked on long songs!
