Theme Song
The Pirates of America theme song is often misheard. It begins:
No Joe, no Joe, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we pop fly and lob,
Bring up me hearties, no Joe.
We kidnap and ravage and quit our day job,
Bring up me hearties, no Joe.
No Joe, no Joe, a pirate's life for me.
