I like the taste of a pirate ship
A yummy boat filled with gold is so hip
Skurvy took my teeth 'cause he's afraid of me
He knows I'll eat everything I see

I got a deal that you can't refuse
I got the key, somethin' you can use
If you don't help me then it looks like we're beat
Someone get my teeth back
I gotta eat!

Haven't had a check-up in a century
I can't recall a single cavity
Pardon me for frowning, I don't mean to be rude
Without my teeth, I'm gummin' on my food

That Kaptain Skurvy, man, what a pest!
He took my teeth and threw them in the crow's nest
If you don't help me then it looks like we're beat
Someone get my teeth back
Someone get my teeth back
Someone get my teeth back
I gotta eat!

Moi, les bateaux pirates, je trouve ça bon Un gros galion avec sa cargaison Skurvy garde mes dents parce qu'il a peur de moi Je pense qu'à une chose : me remplir l'estomac Laisse-moi te faire une proposition J'ai un marché, tu pourras pas dire non Je vous donne la clé, en échange vous me rendez Mon dentier au complet Je dois bouffer ! Moi, les dentistes, je n'en ai jamais vu Je n'ai jamais eu une seule carie C'est un vrai miracle si j'ai survécu Je suis obligé de me contenter de bouillie Ce Skurvy est un total abruti Il a balancé mes dents dans la vigie Je vous donne la clé, en échange vous me rendez Mon dentier au complet Mon dentier au complet Mon dentier au complet Je dois bouffer !

I think pirate ships are good A big galleon with its cargo Skurvy keeps my teeth because he's afraid of me I only think about filling my stomach Let me make you an offer I've got a deal, you can't say no I'll give you the key, in exchange you'll give me back My dentures in full I've got to eat! I've never seen a dentist I've never had a single cavity It's a real miracle that I survived I have to make do with gruel That Skurvy is a total moron He threw my teeth into the crow's nest I'll give you the key, in exchange you'll give me back My dentures in full My dentures in full My dentures in full I've got to eat!

Translation

Il mio vizio è sgranocchiare le navi dei pirati Legno marcio e scaglie d'oro, sapori prelibati Quel pirata mi ha portato via i denti, sa che mangio di tutto Aveva paura che sgranocchiassi la sua nave, quel farabutto Ti propongo un accordo che non puoi rifiutare Io ho una chiave, uno strumento che potrai usare Saremo tutti sconfitti se tu non mi aiuti Quindi per favore Recuperate i miei denti perduti! Non faccio una visita da tempi ormai passati E non ricordo di aver mai avuto denti cariati Un Trappidrillo che adesso mai più sorride Sono costretto a masticare il cibo con le gengive Vorrei che questo fosse solo un brutto ricordo Il capitano ha lanciato i miei denti nel nido del corvo Saremo tutti sconfitti se tu non mi aiuti Quindi per favore Recuperate i miei denti perduti! Ho fame! Ho fame! Ho fame!

My bad habit is chewing pirate ships Rotten wood and golden chips, delicious flavors That pirate took my teeth, he knows I eat everything He was afraid I would chew up his ship, that crook I'm offering you a deal you can't refuse I have a key, a tool you can use We'll all be defeated if you don't help me So please Get my lost teeth back! I haven't had a check-up for a long time now And I don't remember ever having decayed teeth A Klap Trap who now doesn't smile anymore I'm forced to chew food with my gums I want this to be just a bad memory The captain threw my teeth in the crow's nest We'll all be defeated if you don't help me So please Get my lost teeth back! I'm hungry! I'm hungry! I'm hungry!
