With cat-like tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
No sound at all
We never speak a word
A fly's foot-fall
Would be distinctly heard
Tarantara, tarantara
So stealthily the pirate creeps
While all the household soundly sleeps
ย
Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary
Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary
Here's your crowbar
And your center bit
Your life preserver
You may want to hit
Your silent matches
Your dark lantern seize
Take your file
And your skeletonic keys
Tarantara
With cat-like tread
Tarantara
In silence dread
With cat-like tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
No sound at all
We never speak a word
A fly's foot-fall
Would be distinctly heard
Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary
With cat like tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary
With cat-like tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
