We'll tell
every banker "Heave to and
weigh
anchor!"
Buy latte with
pieces of eight
We'll fight to be chosen as cap'n or bosun
The loser, o' course, is worst mate!
Yo, Ho, Yo, Ho,
It's "Talk Like A Pirate" Day!
That time in September when sea dogs
remember
That
grown-ups still know how ta play! |

September 19th 2008 is Talk Like a Pirate Day! Talk
Like a Pirate Day only comes once a year (on September 19th). If
you’re not ready yet, you can learn more
about this international holiday on the About
TLAPD page or practice some phrases from the PiratePhrases
page. After all, you don’t want to be handed the BlackSpot
when the holiday is over! |

There
ain't no computin' or morning
commutin',
No "Parking
Lot Full" signs for me,
No lawns ta be mowin' or bills to be owin',
I'm knowin' the pull of the sea.
So hoist up the mainsils and shut down
your
brain cells,
They only
would get in the way,
Avast there, me hearty, we're havin' a
party,
It's "Talk...
Like... A Pirate" Day!
