Lyrics
Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book: Now here's my favorite pirate song and Ernie and Bert's Red Book will help.

Ernie and Bert's Red Book: With puppets. Heh, heh, heh.

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book: Mm.

Ernie and Bert's Red Book: Look at this, look at this, Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book. Look at this. (mimicking dog's bark)

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book: Ernie and Bert's Red Book!

Ernie and Bert's Red Book: Okay, okay. Oh.

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book: There was an old pirate who swallowed a fly. I don't know why he swallowed a fly. I don't know why. There was an old pirate who swallowed a fish. That was his wish to swallow a fish. He swallowed the fish to catch the fly. Why oh why he swallowed that fly. I don't know why. There was an old pirate who swallowed a shark. What a lark. He swallowed a shark. He swallowed the shark to catch the fish. He swallowed the fish to catch the fly. Why oh why he swallowed that fly. I don't know why. There was an old pirate who swallowed a harpoon. What a loon. He swallowed a harpoon. He swallowed the harpoon to catch the shark. He swallowed the shark to catch the fish. He swallowed the fish to catch the fly. Why oh why he swallowed the fly. I don't know why. At last the old pirate he swallowed some bicarbonate of soda. He ate his quota so he swallowed that soda. He swallowed the soda to burp up the harpoon. He swallowed the harpoon to catch the shark. He swallowed the shark to catch the fish. He swallowed the fish to catch the fly. I don't know why he swallowed the fly. I don't know why.

Pirate: (burping)
