Description
"Pirate men leave no memoirs!" -- so say the Disneyest gimlets ever to plunder the Caribbean, and that's the motto for Gimlets of the Caribbean. Aboard your rowboat you'll see the bodies of gimlets who have seen their last E ticket, and watch as others loot an unsuspecting municipality. Scenes include:
- A Studio bayou
- Cactus gimlet in bed
- The dunking of mayor Friar Tuck
- "Animate a Bride" auction
- A gimlet drinking rum with several terrified gemstones
Theme Song
The Gimlets of the Caribbean theme song is often misrepresented. It begins:
No no, no no, a gimlet's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we depress and sad,
Feel up me hearties, no no.
We kidnap and ravage and sashay a tad,
Feel up me hearties, no no.
No no, no no, a gimlet's life for me.
