Tango

HOOK:
We'll cook a cake quite large
and fill each layer in between
with icing mixed with poison
til it turns a tempting green

PIRATES:
icing mixed with poison
til it turns a tempting green

HOOK:
we'll place it near the house
just where the boys are sure to come
and being greedy they won't care to
question such a plum

PIRATES:
the boys who have no mother sweet

HOOK:
no one to show them their mistake
Pirates: won't know it's dangerous to eat

HOOK:
so damp and rich a cake-

and so before the winking of an eye
those boys will eat that poison cake
and one by one they'll die-

PIRATES:
they'll die, they'll die, they'll die, they'll die, they'll die-!

ALL:
OLE'!!!
