Shiver My Timbers

The Muppets · Treasure Island

Shiver my timbers, shiver my soul

Yo ho, heave ho

There are men whose hearts as black as coal

Yo ho, heave ho



And they sailed their ship 'cross the ocean blue

A bloodthirsty captain and a cutthroat crew.

It's as dark a tale as was ever told

Of the lust for treasure and the love of gold...



Shiver my timbers, shiver my sides

Yo ho, heave ho

There are hungers as strong as the wind and tides

Yo ho, heave ho



And those buccaneers drowned there sins in rum

The devil himself would have to call them scum!

Every man on board would have killed his mate for a bag of

guineas or a piece of eight, a piece of eight, a piece of eight

Five, six, seven, eight



Hulla wacka, ulla wacka, something not right

Many wicked, icky things gonna happen tonight

Hulla wacka, moola wacka, sailor man, beware



When de money in de ground, there's murder in the air,

Murder in the air.



One more time now



Shiver my timbers, shiver my bones

Yo ho, heave ho

There are secrets that sleep with old Davy Jones

Yo ho, heave ho



When the mainsail's set and the anchor's weighed

There's no turning back from any course that's laid

And when greed and villainy sail the sea,

You can bet your boots there'll be treachery (Laughter)



Shiver my timbers, shiver my sails

Dead men tell no tales!
