Theme Song
The Pirates of Hong Kong theme song is often sung aloud. It begins:
Oh know, oh know, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we lady and tramp,
Jump up me hearties, oh know.
We kidnap and ravage and carry a lamp,
Jump up me hearties, oh know.
Oh know, oh know, a pirate's life for me.

- If you are visiting with small children or very small children, you may want to painstakingly avoid the adjacent character interaction garden.
