Meat Pete the Pirate

I once knew a pirate named Pete There's nothing that he wouldn't eat He once swallowed a whale But then choked on the tail And now he himself is dead meat

The seabirds had a whale of a time - Feasting on pirate Pete was divine - All they left was the tail - Bones, teeth, flippers and nails - The rest had gone down a treat, simply fine…… Beryl

The seagulls all gathered round...blessed with a feast for the town...old Pete they did peck...not leaving a speck....thanked God this poor chap had drown

It's true, on old Pete they did peck........But those seagulls showed proper respect......They knew he would be....better pooped out at sea......Than rotting away some the deck.
