The Scurvy Seacat

Badder than bad were
Cap'n Penn and his crew
Scurvy seadogs all
Just lemme tell you!

Although he was a cat, you see.

From dusk until dawn
Dawn until dusk
They pillaged, they plundered
They scowled and they cussed!

They were scurvy sea pirates, you see;
And they liked being bad as can be.

One morn on the bay
Where the Vicious Clam docked
Came a bigger name challenge
And Cap'n Penn was… shocked!

It was Tenn the Noble, you see!
As noble an Ixi can be!

With a 'Rawr!' Penn charged
To defend his rep
But Tenn just smiled
And made a clever sidestep.

He did not want to fight, you see.

"Captain Penn, listen here
For I've something to say
You've gone on too long with your barbaric way
And I've come to end it to-day!"

A glint formed in his eye;
Tenn would not take a nay!

"Rarg!" growled Penn
And his buccaneers ten
Sprung up around him,
Swords a'bristling.

As clear an answer as day.

"Captain Penn, mighty Gruslen
Plague of the sea,
I would be honored, forever…
Won't you come and play… with me?"

The sword fell with a clatter
From his surprised orange paw.
Something rose from within
That no one had saw!

Except Wise Tenn, you see.

From that day forward
Scurvy seadog no more
The whole WORLD was his
From ship to the shore!

Cap'n Penn and Kind Tenn
The closest of chums
Together exploring
This world they come from.

It's wide Neopia, you see.
