This song is about driving inside a Scrub-a-Doo car wash inside a “ship”, which is actually a Toyota, while under the influence or while smuggling a drug or drink called Peg Leg Potion that is supposedly undetectable, even by drug sniffing dogs.
[Verse 1]
Far away in a secret cove
In the land of Scrubadoo
We hide our mighty pirate ship
From the eyes of folks like you
Aboard the good ship Matey
We brew a toxic punch
It looks a bit like gravy
And it tastes like Captain Crunch
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ephemeral delectable
Entirely undetectable
You'll need a pair of spectacles
For diplomatic dog
[Chorus]
I sail the seas of Scrub-a-Dub Island
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Always on the search for treasure
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Drink to the end of time
[Verse 2]
Take one part finest spirit
From Caribbean seas
Mix it up with monkey brains
And the scrapings from your knees
A dash of Creme De Cacao
A pint of French moonshine
Shake for fifteen seconds
Prepare for drinking time
[Pre-Chorus 2]
From Oregon to South Dakota
Underwater toilet quota
Driving in an old Toyota
Systematic fog
[Chorus]
I sail the seas of Scrub-a-Dub Island
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Always on the search for treasure
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Drink to the end of time
[Solo]
[Outro]
I sail the seas of Scrub-a-Dub Island
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Always on the search for treasure
So pour me a glass of the Pegleg Potion
Drink to the end of time
We'll drink to the end of time
