with cat-like tread
chorus – pirates and police
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–
police: (softly) tarantara, tarantara!
pirates: 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 piracee with a little burglaree!
police: (softly) tarantara, tarantara!
samuel: (distributing implements to various members of the gang)
here’s your crowbar and your centrebit,
your life-preserver–you may want to hit!
your silent matches, your dark lantern seize,
take your file and your skeletonic keys.
police: tarantara!
pirates: with cat-like tread
police: tarantara!
pirates: in silence dread,
all (fortissimo): 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 piracee with a little burglaree!
with cat-like tread, upon our prey we steal,
in silence dread, our cautious way we feel.
