The Pirates of Cumberland Island

And now it's time for silly songs with Lily. The part of the show where Lily comes out and sings a silly song. Joining Lily are Captain Jack Swallow and the lovely Elizabeth Swann, who together, make up the infamous gang of scallywags, "The Pirates of Cumberland Island"...

We are the Pirates of Cumberland Island

We ride wild horses and sail around

And if you ask us ’bout maritime forests

We'll just tell you…about live oak trees!

Well, Cumberland is a beauty

with seventeen miles of beaches

majestic Dungenous ruins and a salt marsh to the west

there are lots of crabs and sand dunes

and a beached whale if you’re lucky

but the bugs are bad at Jekyll in the fall.

We are the Pirates of Cumberland Island

We ride wild horses and sail around

And if you ask us ’bout maritime forests

We'll just tell you…about live oak trees!

There are lots of types of islands

But they’re all surrounded by water

Coral reefs grow into islands with a lagoon to dock the boat

Islands grow from volcanoes

And others from sand deposits

But the bugs are bad at Jekyll in the fall

We are the Pirates of Cumberland Island

We ride wild horses and sail around

And if you ask us ’bout maritime forests

We'll just tell you…about live oak trees!

Well, mummies are kinda scary

They’re buried in pointy buildings

It takes seventy days for embalming to take hold

All the guts get put in bottles

Then the body gets wrapped in linen

But the bugs are bad at Jekyll in the fall

We are the Pirates of Cumberland Island

We ride wild horses and sail around

And if you ask us ’bout maritime forests

We'll just tell you…about live oak trees!

Well I've never plucked a rooster
And I'm not too good at ping pong
And I’ve never thrown my mashed potatoes
Up against the wall
And I’ve never kissed a chipmunk

Huh? What are you talking about? What does a rooster or mashed potatoes have to do with SCIENCE class?

Hey! That's right! We're supposed to sing about SCIENTIFIC things. And who's ever kissed a chipmunk? That's just nonsense! Why even bring it up? Am I right?

LILY…I think you look like Cap'n Crunch...
ANNA…Huh? No I don't!
CAROLINE…Do too.
ANNA…Do not.
LILY…You're making me hungry...
ANNA…That's it, you're walking the plank!
CAROLINE…Says who?
ANNA…Says the Cap'n!
LILY…oh yeah?
CAROLINE…Aye, Aye... Cap'n Crunch... hehehe
ANNA…ARRRGH!
