Young Jim, as a lad 
He looked for adventure 
Calamity, danger, whatever was free 
So when he turned ten, he packed his belongings 
and he left home to find his destiny

Jim just a boy, who's 
Head full of legends 
Of dungeons and dragons 
And pirates and stuff 
So that summer he snuck on a schooner 
To harpoon tuna 
And get real buff

The Captain he said 
There's danger ahead 
We need some brave men 
To sail and then 
We'll find us those pirates 
Stop them with violence, 
To make the ocean safe

Cleaning up the oceans 
Captain Hampton and his crew 
Trouble in the seven seas 
He'll know what to do 
Captain, he hates rubbish 
To him pirates are just soot 
Scallywags and scurvy dogs 
Are crushed under his foot.

Now, seven weeks into the trip 
And Jim was sick to death 
Of being sick 
Some kind of action he wanted 
As he searched the seas 
For everyday was the same old... stuff 
The night he felt like jumping ship 
But then he heard a crash 
Hit the starboard side of the ship 
And bumped him out of his bunk 
Onto his bottom

Our heroes drew their swords 
As the midgets swarmed aboard 
The pirates surprise attack 
The tiny buccaneers 
Caught us by surprise 
As we tried to battle back.
