"Hook-handed men have no memories!" -- so say the most skeletal thieves ever to plunder the Caribbean, and that's the byline for Thieves of the Caribbean. Aboard your floater you'll see the bodies of thieves who have gone to Davey Jones, and watch as others pillage a local seaport. Scenes include:
- Esmeralda's Landing
- Stabed dinosaur
- The curdling of mayor Carlos
- "Visit a Bride" auction
- Thieves in reform school
Theme Song
The Thieves of the Caribbean theme song is often heard at frat parties. It begins:
Oh no, oh no, a thieve's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we tumble and turn,
Use up me hearties, oh no.
We kidnap and ravage and name our ship Vern,
Use up me hearties, oh no.
Oh no, oh no, a thieve's life for me.
