Captain Alanna

There is a little Pirate Girl, Her name is Captain Alanna, She wears a Jolly Roger on her hat, And she loves bananas. She sails on a Pirate ship, Across oceans and seas, Swashbuckling and hunting treasure, In between having afternoon teas. No other ships or crew are safe, When Captain Alanna sets sail, They see her ship on the horizon, That’s when they tremble, then turn pale. If anyone makes her angry, They’re made to walk the plank, She hides her treasure on desert islands, It isn’t in any bank. She prefers to drink apple juice, She’s not too keen on rum, A happy pirate girl she is, And hardly ever glum. With her crew she’s bossy, She calls out “All hands on deck”, “Arrrrgh”, they all reply, Then whisper “Oh heck”. There’s a parrot on her shoulder, A patch over her right eye, She’s ruthless with her cutlass, Enough to make grown men cry. Afternoon naps are forbidden, She sleeps when she’s ready, Snuggled up with her trusty sidekick, The one that she calls Teddy.
