- Talking duck and crossbones
- Stabed child
- Pirate ship battle
- "Buy a Computer" auction
- A pirate drinking cockatoo with several terrified cats
Theme Song
The Pirates of Disneyland theme song is often misquoted. It begins:
Jo jo, jo jo, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we shuffle and slog,
Kick up me hearties, jo jo.
We kidnap and ravage and write in our blog,
Kick up me hearties, jo jo.
Jo jo, jo jo, a pirate's life for me.
