Disney Stuff

In case you were interested, I pulled the original lyrics to Pirates of the Caribbean off of the Disney Intranet. Shh! This is flagged for INTERNAL USE ONLY!

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, plunder,we rifle, we loot,drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me.
We extort and pilfer, we filch and sack, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Maraud and embezzle and even highjack, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirate's life for me.
We kindle and char and inflame and ignite, drink up me hearties Yo Ho.
We burn up the city we're really a fright, drink up me hearties Yo Ho.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A pirate's life for me.
We're rascals and scoundrels, we're villains and knaves, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
We're devils and black sheep, we're really bad eggs, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A pirate's life for me.
We're beggars and blighters and ne'er do well cads, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies 'n dads, drink up me hearties, Yo Ho.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A pirate's life for me.

Oh dear, they kidnap ravage and don't give a hoot!?!? Are they polluting too?? I am impressed that a bunch of presumably illiterate pirates were able to come up with four synonyms for 'burn'.

UPDATE: Heh, they embezzle too? Do they sneak into town at night and cook the books at Ye Olde Investment Firm? I'm amused by the thought of a bunch of pirates sitting around plotting to plunder the 401(k) plan at the local sugar plantation.

Ben,
Can you post more insider info on more rides? I like feeling like I'm "in the know". Also, please include the phone numbers of Disney higher-ups so that I know who to contact if I have any comments or suggestions.

And yet, despite all they do to plunder the riches of the world, it seems they still have to beg for a living.
I think the line is missing where they say they also send scam emails.
