Poppy was a Pirate Lyrics

Poppy was a pirate yes she was

Poppy was a pirate

She sailed the 7 seas because

She sailed the 7 seas

Her sister took her things, like her dolls and shiny rings

So she set off for an adventure on her own

Poppy left home

A sailing ship moored in the bay

It was a pirate ship

Poppy snuck aboard and stowed away

But she didn't know it

Once the ship was out at sea, the pirates made a discovery

They threw poor Poppy in the brig below

Poppy said oh no

Captain Spleen said she could stay

Poppy could live on board

If she cooked and cleaned and put things away

Like pots and pans and swords

So Poppy worked like a slave – and was made to behave

Or Mean ol' Spleen would make her walk the plank

Poppy said no thanks

A mighty storm raged through one night

The ship was tossed around

The poor old pirates were petrified

They thought they would drown

And all that Captain Spleen could do - was snivel, moan and spew

The pirates thought they were good as dead

Poppy said not yet

She fought the rain and grabbed the wheel

They went up a waterspout

The panicked pirates began to squeal

But Poppy rode it out

And while her shipmates hid, do you know what Poppy did

She steered the ship to safety on her own

Through a cyclone

When the pirates saw what she had done

Poppy took a bow

They held an election and Poppy won

So she's their Captain now

And former Captain Spleen, now has to cook and mend and clean

While Poppy sails her ship around the world

Poppy's some girl
