[CHORUS OF PIRATES]
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!
[CHORUS OF POLICE]
Ta-ran, ta-ra!
Ta-ran, ta-ra.
[CHORUS OF PIRATES]
So stealthily the pirate creeps,
While all the household soundly sleeps!
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!
[SAMUEL]
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
[CHORUS OF POLICE]:
Ta-ran, ta-ra!
[CHORUS OF PIRATES]:
With Cat like tread!
[CHORUS OF POLICE]:
Ta-ran, ta-ra!
[CHORUS OF PIRATES]:
In silence dread!
[CHORUS OF PIRATES]
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!
Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy,
With a little burglary!
