Sha la la la la la la la

There’s a pirate princess tall and strong
She always sings her favourite song
Tall tales of far off lands
Giant squid and golden sands
And it’s a song that never ends
For who can say what’s round the bend

Sha la la la la la la la
And who knows where this story wends

So the pirate princess calls her crew
This is how it goes you can all sing too
I wanna hear those voices reach the clouds
We leave at dawn for the ocean bound
Singing the song that never ends
For who can say what’s round the bend?

Sha la la la la la la la
And broken hearts this journey mends

Then the pirate princess meets the king
He plays his harp while the fishies sing
How do you know that song so slow?
And the ocean king he bows down low
Don’t you know the song that never ends?
For who knows what lays round the bend

Sha la la la la la la la
And who knows where all journeys end

Then a deep sea serpent hears the tune
And it rises to the surface too
It can’t stop dancing with the song
And it makes a whirlpool ten miles long
And it’s a song that never ends
For who can say what’s round the bend

Sha la la la la la la la
And who knows where this story wends

So the ocean king he summons waves
To help the princess escape
They tack and reach for calmer strands
Where the crabs all tango hand in hand
To the song that never ends
For who knows what lays round the bend

Sha la la la la la la la
And who knows where all journeys end

And the song will never end
And the song will never end

Now the princess and her ocean king
Have 1000 merry instruments
A pirate crew and an underwater band
To play their tune for the stars and sand
And the song will never end
For who knows what lies round the bend
And the song will never end
And the song will never end
And the song will never end

Sha la la la la la la la
And the song will never end
Sha la la la la la la la
And the song will never end
Sha la la la la la la la
And the song will never end
