Here's Norris Dale's final verse for this song:

Being a pirate is all fun and games
Til somebody writes a new verse;
The lyrics are doggerel,
The rhyming is mongrel;
It just couldn't get any worse;
And then it goes viral
In a widening spiral
And everyone sings it, of course--
Being a pirate is all fun and games
Til somebody writes a new verse!

I should think even Don Freed might appreciate this verse.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
