Pirates Of Penzance With Cat-like Tread, Upon Our Prey We Steal


Pirates: With Cat-Like Tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
No sound at all
We never speak a word
A fly's foot-fall
Would be distinctly heard

Tarantara, Tarantara.

So stealthily the pirate creeps
While all the household soundly sleeps

Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary

Here's your crowbar
And your centre bit
Your life preserver
You may want to hit

Your silent matches
Your dark lantern seize
Take your file
And your skeletonic keys

Tarantara,
With Cat like tread
Tarantara
In silence dread

Pirates
With Cat-Like Tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
No sound at all
We never speak a word
A fly's foot-fall
Would be distinctly heard

Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary

With cat like tread
Upon our prey we steal
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel
