The Muppets

The Muppets, often branded as Disney's The Muppets, are a group of puppet characters created by Jim Henson starting in 1954–55, which have also become the namesake for the Walt Disney Company media franchise that encompasses films, television series, discography, print publications and other media associated with the The Muppet Show characters. Although the term "Muppet" is often used to refer to any puppet that resembles the distinctive style of The Muppet Show, the term is both a formal name and legal trademark owned by the Walt Disney Company in reference to the original characters created by Henson. more »

When I was just a lad looking for my true vocation
My father said "Now son, this choice deserves deliberation
Though you could be a doctor or perhaps a financier
My boy why not consider a more challenging career

Hey ho ho
You'll cruise to foreign shores
And you'll keep your mind and body sound
By working out of doors

True friendship and adventure are what we can't live without

And when you're a professional pirate
Bad Polly: That's what the job's about

Upstage, lads, this is my ONLY number!
Now take Sir Francis Drake, the Spanish all despise him
But to the British he's a hero and they idolize him
It's how you look at buccaneers that makes them bad or good
And I see us as members of a noble brotherhood

Hey ho ho
We're honorable men
And before we lose our tempers we will always count to ten

On occasion there may be someone you have to execute

But when your a professional pirate

You don't have to wear a suit, what?

I could have been a surgeon
I like taking things apart

I could have been a lawyer
But I just had too much heart

I could have been in politics
'Cause I've always been a big spender

And me
I could have been a contender

Some say that pirates steal and should be feared and hated
I say we're victims of bad press it's all exaggerated
We'd never stab you in the back, we'd never lie or cheat
We're just about the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet
Long John's speech

Hey ho ho
It's one for all for one
And we'll share and share alike with you and love you like a son
We're gentlemen of fortune and that's what we're proud to be
And when your a professional pirate

Long John: You'll be honest brave and free
The soul of decency
You'll be loyal and fair and on the square
And most importantly

When you're a professional pirate
You're always in the best of company
