The Pittsburgh Pirate of Penzance
\n\u201cI\u2019m adrift to say a thankful thanks to you
\nfor ACW\u2019s epaulets and sailor\u2019s top hat too
\nwith a horny hornpipe toot\u201d
\nTaran Tara, Taran Tara<\/p>\n

I am the perfect model of a model perfect birthday gift
\nFull of generosity \/ without pomp-os-ity or thrift
\nI\u2019ve taught a school of fish, and know the mysteries of the sea
\nI sail the ocean blue in a pink and blue tu-tu
\nAnd eschew a tattoo on my chest
\nAnd celebrate a nautical piece of cake
\nWith Billy Budd in my bed
\nI rant Taran Tara \/ Taran Tara<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve information subliminal \/ \u00a0animal and vegetable
\nAnd sip me hearties hard-on treat \/ \u00a0a seashell brine so TERRIBLE
\nAnchors away with this motley crew
\nAhoy ahoy, I say Adieu
\nI walked the plank \/ while the ship sank \u00a0\/ without a single thanks \/ or howdy do.
\nI joined an admiral overboard<\/p>\n

Where we became shark stew.<\/p>\n

Taran Tara, Taran Tara<\/div>\n
