Pirates:  T’was just another summer day when Jack and Annie came to play

They spied a ladder hanging down from way up high down to the ground

They climbed the ladder to take a look they found a tree house full of books.

They made a wish and the tree house shook it spun and spun and off they took.

Annie/Jack: Up here high in the tallest tree there is one thing we would like to know. Out there through history time and space. Where is the next place we will go?

Pirates: Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho!
