lyrics

Fifteen gremlins on an empty chest,
yo ho ho and nobody wants to rest,
a three headed monkeys eat some pork,
yo ho ho ... and what the folk?

Fifteen gremlins on an empty chest,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
drunken boozers now do your best,
yo ho ho ... now beat the drum.

The eastwind blowin' through the coast.
Prevent scurvy don't be scared of orange toast.
Scrub the deck, 'hoy captain!
Fly the flag, 'hoy captain!
Hoist the anchor, 'hoy, 'hoy 'hoy!
Our ship will never loose!
The ocean is rough, harr harr!
Our beards are tough enough!
We've got patched our jolly-boat.

Davy Jones send a damn huge squid,
kick in dough we can easily quit,
but the cook smokes a lot of weed.
he stumbles from the plank and cedes.

Fifteen gremlins singing on the freight,
yo ho ho high c and get no aid,
another was costumed like a stork,
yo ho ho ... and what the folk?

Fifteen gremlins singing on the freight,
yo ho ho there rolls a shrunken head,
babbling "Treasure behind the strait!"
yo ho ho ... now ship ahoy!

Feel free and take the chance to steal what you see ... yo ho ho ho!
Sign the list, the devil will never get your soul, 'cause
we 'll be missed.
Feel free and take the chance to steal what you see ... yo ho ho ho!
The sparkling polished to gear to expand our ship?!
Yo ho ho ho!

The eastwind blowin' through the coast.
Prevent scurvy don't be scared of orange toast.
Scrub the deck, 'hoy captain!
Fly the flag, 'hoy captain!
Hoist the anchor, 'hoy, 'hoy 'hoy!
Our ship will never loose!
The ocean is rough, harr harr!
Our beards are tough enough!
We've got patched our jolly-boat.

The cave there looks like a monkey head,
screams come out and the light flickers red,
grog on ex because of pleasures,
can you smell the gold filled treasures?

Fifteen gremlins found a cryptic chest,
yo ho ho insides ticking with no rest,
something's steaming out of the dark oak,
yo ho ho ... and what the folk?

Fifteen gremlins on a steampunk chest,
yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
now what's ticking in this case?
we open the cover and ...
