SKURVY:
If ya ask me mother, she'll say, "Ah, he's not so bad"
But when I left the house, I took everything she had
I took 'er silver and 'er gold, and scoffed 'er weddin' band
I even took 'er aprons and 'er copper pots and pansKUTLASS & GREEN KROC:
Lyin', lootin', stealin'SKURVY:
Is the reason I'm apirate!KUTLASS & GREEN KROC:
Ransackin', pillagin'SKURVY:
Don't knock it 'til you try it!KUTLASS & GREEN KROC:
Plundering and pilferin'SKURVY:
Make up a healthy diet!
Arrh, look at me! I'm doin' the Booty Boogie!No treasure is too big; I'd scarf the peaks ofKilimanjaro
As well as raid the tomb; I'd steal the mummy from apharaoh,
I'd swipe theCrown Jewels, andMerlin's crystal ball,
But the Crystal Coconut is the daddy of 'em all!
If you want a job with all the riches you can stand,
And all o' the security of a great pension plan,
Arrh! Then come aboard!ALL:
Lyin', lootin', stealin' is the reason we are pirates!
Ransackin', pillagin', don't knock it 'til you try it!
Plunderin' and pilferin' make up a healthy diet,
Arrh, look at us! We're doin' the Booty Boogie!
Arrh, from sea to sea! We're doin' the Booty Boogie!KUTLASS:
Heh-heh, what a nice-a song.GREEN KROC:
Mais, oui.

| Singer | French lyrics | Translation |
|---|---|---|
| Skurvy | Ma maman vous dira toujours : « Ah, qu'il est gentil ! » | My mom will always tell you, "Oh, he's so nice!" |
| Kutlass & Green Kroc | Mentir, piller, voler | Lying, plundering, stealing |
| Skurvy | C'est pour ça que je suis un pirate | That's why I'm a pirate |
| Kutlass & Green Kroc | Saccager et mettre à sac | Sacking and ransacking |
| Skurvy | Croyez-moi, c'est amusant | Believe me, it's fun |
| Kutlass & Green Kroc | On chaparde, on plume | We pilfer, we swindle |
| Skurvy | Et on file sur notre belle frégate | And sail away on our beautiful frigate |
Y a rien de trop gros pour moi, je volerais même le Kilimandjaro | Nothing is too big for me, I would even steal Kilimanjaro | |
Si vous voulez un boulot qui rapporte de l'argent | If you want a job that makes money | |
| All | Mentir, piller, voler, c'est pour ça que nous sommes des pirates | Lying, plundering, stealing, that's why we're pirates |
