CHORUS (Teaching Version)

I’ll sing a line la la la la
The scimitar the scimitar
This line will rhyme with lucky star
The scimitar the scimitar
And then one more star
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

The story of the scimitar
The scimitar the scimitar
Her captain plays the bass guitar.
The scimitar the scimitar
The crew they feast on Caviar
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

Their shantyman’s conservatoire
The scimitar the scimitar
Friends with pierre auguste renoir
The scimitar the scimitar
Classy is their repertoire
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

The first mate wears a pink peignoir
The scimitar the scimitar
His spirit animal’s jaguar
The scimitar the scimitar
Moustachios are handlebar
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

Drinks his tea from a samovar
The scimitar the scimitar
And champagne from a balthazar
The scimitar the scimitar
Writes letters from his escritoire
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

Secrets written in grimoire
The scimitar the scimitar
Where to find Excalibur
The scimitar the scimitar
And return without a scar
A ship that sailed the sea

CHORUS

To them we bid an au revoir
The scimitar the scimitar
They are bound for Zanzibar
The scimitar the scimitar
The scimitar the scimitar
A ship that sailed the sea
