Theme Song
The Pirates of the Spanish-American War theme song is often heard at frat parties. It begins:
Cocoa, cocoa, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we bury and burrow,
Set up me hearties, cocoa.
We kidnap and ravage and then eat a churro,
Set up me hearties, cocoa.
Cocoa, cocoa, a pirate's life for me.
