Captain R Jaken 

Likes to have fun 

So with his eyes 

He wears a patch over one  

Sometimes on the left 

Sometimes on the right 

Sometimes in the day 

Sometimes at night 
 

Captain R Jaken  

Likes to say Arrrgh  

And shiver-me-timbers  

And get-on there Jack-tar 

Sometimes he shouts 

Sometimes he mumbles 

Sometimes he sings  

Sometimes he grumbles 

Captain R Jaken 

Likes reading maps 

And looking for treasure  

And setting-off traps  

Sometimes he gets gold 

Sometimes he gets muck 

Sometimes he gets lost 

Sometimes he gets stuck 

Captain R Jaken 

Likes to be brave 

Exploring dark places 

And cold slimey caves 

Sometimes he struts  

Sometimes he sneaks  

Sometimes he’s bold  

Sometimes he shrieks 

Captain R Jaken 

Likes to tell tales 

’bout treasures and battles 

And krakens and whales  

Sometimes he wins 

Sometimes he’s beaten 

Sometimes he escapes  

Sometimes he’s eaten  

Captain R Jaken 

Likes sailing at night 

He sailed to Lands-End 

And then on out of sight 

Sometimes he’s seen 

Sometimes he’s not 

Sometimes he’s remembered 

Sometimes he’s forgot 

Captain R Jaken 

Likes these things and more  

As long as they all  

Can be done from the shore 

Sometime in his heart 

Sometimes in his head 

Sometimes in his chair  

Sometimes in his bed.
