To the guy who posted on Oct 14: Thanks for the "thing" verse! Gotta have a bawdy verse in there. We be pirates, not priests! Arr harr harrrrr.

I can't remember the "head" verse either. But based on what you remembered, I wrote this. What do you think:

Being a pirate is all fun and games
Until somebody loses a head.
You can throw away that
Dashing three-cornered hat
And you won't need a pillow in bed.
You've got no lips for kissin' -
Your whole face is missin!
You're just hanging on by a thread.
Oh, being a pirate is all fun and games, until somebody loses a head.
