The Curse of Monkey Island
Lyrics:
Haggis: We're a band of vicious pirates!
Edward: A sailin´ out to sea.
Bill: When you hear our gentle singing...
Haggis: You'll be sure to turn and flee!
Guybrush: Oh, this is just ridiculous.
Guybrush: Come on, men! We've got to recover that map!
Bill: That pirate will be done for, when he falls into our trap!
Bill: We're a club of tuneful rovers!
Haggis:We can sing in every clef!
Edward:We can even hit the high notes!
Haggis:It's just too bad we're tone deaf!
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: Let's go defeat that evil pirate!
Edward:We know he's sure to lose, ´cause we know just where to fire at!
Edward:We're thieving balladeers.
Haggis:A gang of cutthroat mugs.
Bill: To fight us off ye don't need guns!
Edward:Just really good ear plugs!
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: All right, crew, let's get to work!
Haggis: Our vocation is a thing we love, a thing we'd never shirk.
Haggis: We'll fight you in the harbor.
Bill: We'll battle you on land.
Edward: But when you meet singing pirates...
Guybrush: They'll be more than you can stand.
Bill: Ooooh! That was a good one!
Guybrush: No, it wasn't.
Guybrush: Less singing, more sailing.
Edward: When we defeat our wicked foe, his ship he will be bailing!
Bill: If ye try ta fight us...
Haggis:...you will get a nasty whackin´!
Edward:If ya disrespect our singing´...
Bill: ...we will feed ya to a kraken!
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: No time for song! We've got to move!
Bill: The battle will be long, but our courage we will prove!
Bill: We're a pack a´ scurvy sea dogs.
Haggis:Have we pity? Not a dram!
Edward:We all eat roasted garlic...
Haggis:...then sing from the diaphragm!
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: I´m getting so sick of you guys and your rhyming.
Haggis: We´re ready to set sail, through the cannons need a priming.
Edward: We're troublesome corsairs!
Bill: And we've come to steal your treasures!
Haggis: We would shoot you on the downbeat...
Edward:...but we have to rest five measures.
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: Stop! Stop! Stop!
Bill: The brass is what we'll polish and the deck is what we'll mop.
Guybrush: You say you're nasty pirates...
Guybrush: ...scheming, thieving, bad bushwhackers?
Guybrush: From what I've seen I tell you...
Guybrush: ...you're not pirates! You're just slackers!
All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!
Guybrush: We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange.
Haggis: And...!
Haggis: ...um...
Bill: Well...
Edward:...err...
Bill: Door hinge?
Edward:No, no...
Bill: Guess the song's over, then.
Haggis:Guess so.
Edward:Okay, back to work.
Guybrush: Well gee. I feel a little guilty, now.

![Monkey Island 3 [OST] [CD2] #04 - A Pirate I Was Meant to Be](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2SFZI5dgmAI/mqdefault.jpg)
An interactive song in '97. Now that was innovative.
The beauty of LucasArts, to stay crafty and creative.
@@NessWithABeard until it was bought by Disney, shut down, and the Ip frozen.
@@josecbritos You lose. That didn't rhyme.
@@NessWithABeard wooo, woooo, woooo
@@josecbritos Sad as that is, it's no pop quiz, this song is what we've chosen.
A genuine masterpiece. The art style. The script. Everything. Orange.
23 years later and I'm still humming this tune.
still on my playlist too
To be honest, I forgot about this part, and just got it a few days ago after discovering it on Steam a week or so ago on the summer sale and thought "How could I forget this?!"
I loved this game so much. I need to go replay the series on steam once I finish Return to Monkey Island.
@Nolen did u finish return to monkey Island? What u think?

The best part is how proud Guybrush looks with himself when he delivers the orange line.
The part that had me laughing out loud is when Guybrush joins in; 3:15
"You say you're nasty Pirates,
Scheming, thieving, bad bushwhackers.
From what I've seen I tell you
you're not Pirates, you're just slackers!"
Guybrush: "Dammit... you've got me doing it!"
A PIRATE I WAS MEANT TO BE!
TRIM THE SAILS AND ROAM THE SEA!
I love his face like "wait, what is happening right now?"
It's better if you do that as your fifth choice, because then Guybrush makes the face at 2:25 right after he stops singing, like "AACK! I'm doing it now!"
My favourite verse is "If you try to fight us, you will get a nasty whakin', if you disrespect our singing, we will feed to you to a kraken"!
Cuthroat Bill's enthusiasm delivering that last line is amazing and has me in stitches.
I’m so sad they abandoned this art style.. it’s so unique and iconic.
I'll be playing it again once I have my gin and tonic!
*bouncing*
You should take a look at the Deponia series, if you like that art style and the humor :3
@@Drako999x Those games are much more recent so I'll feel less like a boomer!
*bouncing*
Escape and Tales did a decent job translating this style to 3D IMHO, and the special editions of the first 2 games were also in a style similar to this game.
@@Drako999xDeponia is too much 2000s gamer cringe for me
"You say you're nasty pirates, scheming thieving bad bushwackers; from what I've seen I tell you you're not pirates you're just slackers"
Guybrush has some excellent flow here.
When our foes see us coming, they turn and run in fear!
Fun fact: Haggis McMutton is voiced by Alan Young, who was also the voice of Scrooge McDuck!
I knew that voice sounded familiar!
"The rhyme may not be perfect, but I'm also up for porridge!"
A pirate I was ment to be trim the sails and roam the sea!
And so it has been proven that you can work out with orange
The song was terminated
And that was so premature
We just will keep it going
Turn those writers to manure
A pirate I was meant to be
Trim the sails and roam the sea
Sporange is also an acceptable rhyme
Seven months ago, Xylo Piano unlocked a secret level in TCOMI, now he returned from that voyage and made tiktokers sing sea chanties. Well done, mate!
@@Eliphas_Leary TikTikers? I though you are only a tiktoker if you actually USED tiktok
I remember the first time I got to this part. I was a kid, playing the harder extra puzzle game. It took me at least a month to finally start building my crew. At that time, I hadn't played the other Monkey Islands so I didn't fully comprehend how irreverent and anti-climactic the games could be.
So finally, I finally get my ship and recruit all my pirates. Went through every dialogue, enjoyed these pirates in the barber shop and was super hyped to get the ship. I had no idea what there would be, excited to find the new islands and push through the plot.
Then... I get on the ship... and this happens completely stopping the entire momentum and plot. I was so confused, then the dialogue options started and watching Guybrush get more and more annoyed...
God, I was laughing so hard my dad and brother ended up coming in (they had dropped off the game before the ship) and we were all belly laughing the whole time. My dad had to call my mom in and I had to reload a save to right before it started. Good fucking times.
Your family sounds great.
Sounds amazing!
I love this! That's a fantastic memory! It resonnates with me because I also had a lot of family-bonding moments playing LucasArts-games with my dad and my brother. I remember coming home from school and my dad had figured out a difficult puzzle that we were stuck on for ages in Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis, and the whole family was excited as he demonstrated the solution. We still talk about these games. LucasArts was really something!
@@jannemarie that's awesome! I've never met anyone else who had the same family bonding over Lucasarts games like this (other than my siblings and parents, obvi)!
We played most the Lucasarts games too, we basically had time slots for turns and my parents had rules like we couldn't watch anyone further than you are, and my dad (who was the puzzle solver like yours lol) would only help us kids after we slept on the puzzle. I know Fate of Atlantis had lots of moon logic puzzles so my parents helped more often on that.
But the main one we talk about, and I had an experience like yours was the Dig. I dunno if you played that one, and don't wanna spoil if not, but my mom stopped playing her own game and just watched and helped my dad. So there was a puzzle about making a trap, they apparently stayed up all night trying to figure it out lol. I remember the next day, my dad told us kids that when we get to a trap puzzle if we can't figure it out in ten minutes he'd show us so we didn't waste our time haha
When you're the only one trying to be serious on Sea of Thieves but the rest of the galleon are screwing around.
Corsair Carl So true man, I wish people were more like you.
Corsair Carl When we next meet that Rottingham, we’ll run his ship aground
@@EricDG326 THE PIRATE I WAS MEANT TO BE!
Corsair Carl TRIM THE SAILS AND ROAM THE SEA!
Too many people playing around with their jar of dirt.
I remember the first time I played the game and didn't understand English well enough (especially in verse) I was as annoyed by this part as Guybrush is in this scene. But now, I think it's just simply genius.
I can't understand how I missed this. I have really never seen this part. I guess you can miss it?
@@countluke2334 If you played it in a different language, it's possible this entire sequence was skipped. I remember this scene caught me be surprise when I replayed the game in English, because it surely wasn't there when I played it in Italian as a kid. I guess it was really difficult to translate, sing, and mix with the music, to the point that the localization team simply said: "whatever, let's skip it".
@@robertoallegra Well, that explains why I didnt remember this at all. I guess is also missing from the Spanish version

Man... another hero of my childhood died. The world is becoming really empty...
That's one hell of a long life! I doubt he had many regrets!
And another hero has left this world... Bud Spencer (Carlo Pedersoli). May his soul rest in peace. Thank You, Carlo!
back in the golden days of LucasArts ❤️
Yofaa too bad LucasArts will never come back
@@Asiandude91 Nope. Disney Empire now. :(
I hope when the Monkey Island/Sea of Thieves crossover comes out in two weeks, you can unlock this song as a shanty, like A Pirate's Life for Me with the PotC crossover.
Ah a fellow pirate
😢
1000x better than current art style
Man, I miss the days were big games didn't fear to be cheesy and fun in memorable ways.
Most big games are scared of doing this sort of stuff today, while taking themselves way too seriously.
Maeson you’ve got Red Dead Redemption 2 tho. It’s 45% fun 55% tragedy. It’s a good game.
@@stefancristi2493 YNNEL
video games are dead now
You expecting video games to be FUN??? What blasphemy is this?
I can't believe I uploaded this 6 years ago... it feels like today I replayed the game.
FrantACs
Hi
We're gettin ol' mate..
And soon its 9 years.........time flies scary fast......i remember watching this when you first uploaded it.
9 years now
Its 9 year now
This game esp (the curse of mi) is such a gem...from the graphics , art, puns story, music and characters..the expressions.....pure joy
One of the most beautiful gaphics adventure. Then there was Monkey Island 4 ....
All these years later and it is still funny and enjoyable! A hidden treasure it be!
@@rgerber MI4 wasn't that bad - it was the worst of MI series but in the grand-scheme of all adventure games, it is still pretty high up! The controllers were bad, but the story is great and the puzzles are fun and challenging
I could listen to this all day ... every day
This song taught me that "pirate" rhymes with "pirate".
We know he's sure to lose cause we know just where to fire it
He says "fire it".
I love Guybrush animations during the scene. So expressive
To pull it off you need programmers that impressive!
He looks like he's slowly losing his will to live!
sad thing is of all the crews guybursh has had these three where the best
One started a mutiny, one was sailing in circles(If you count Dredd as a crew) and one had a habit of crashing the ship.
So yeah, they were really the best.
WJZAV don't forget the one crew member who heavily relied on guybrush to point on the map just to get anywhere(Winslow)
WJ ZAV I mean it was less of a mutiny and more of a lazy crew wanting to sunbathe
Never mind just played the third game
@@sleetarashi Actually I think of Winslow as one of the better ones
“We can even hit the high notes.”
“It’s just too bad we’re tone deaf.”
Best part, hands down.
Guybrush's reaction were just priceless.
And the lyrics were just righteous!
Why can't real life be this awesome?!
It was, back in 1997
maybe it was in the 1400 or whenever monkey island took place in
@@JakeBoneYou're off by at least 3 centuries
@@Iohannis42 not that good with history, atleast when it comes to pirates :c
Off to Somalia we go!
I love how after they sing A PIRATE I WAS MEANT TO BE over and over, on Blood island they will decide they prefer to cut... hairs :D
Something just dawned on me about the song. One of it's purpose right here in the game is that it's a tutorial for the sword fight mechanic in the game.
In a way the song teaches the player how pirates will respond to what you choose in dialogue in a fight, since you are essentially fighting the crew to get back to work. You are shown that the way you want to respond with someone you're in a fight with is a way that they're unable to rhyme with what you've said back at you. So when you mention orange, which is notorious for being hard to rhyme to. You win the fight and the pirates get back to work. Brilliant game design!
huh... never saw it that way, but by the time i played this i already had played 1 and 2 so i was familiar with insult-fighting. also the version i played didn´t have that song so i only learned about that part years and years later
the latin american dub cut the entire song, because they couldn't find how to translate it, or refused to sing
@@DarkMoe Same with the german version, unfortunately.
Reminds me how the Bone Song in Monkey Island 2 winds up being a clue as to how you navigate LeChuck's fortress later on in the game.
Such a creative idea really.
Guybrush slowly losing his will to live may be the best part!
I was wondering why I hadn't seen this scene in my Spanish game, and turns out it was CUT in all non-English translations. How the rest of the world was deprived of this marvel is unforgivable.
A pirate I was meant to be!
Trim the sails and roam the sea!
born in 97, i'll beglad to say this is one of my favourite gaming experiences until this day! Monkey Island is a true gem. Thanks Papa!
I think that "door hinge" was a pretty fair rhyme. What about: "When we get close to that treasure we'll surely feel a twinge!". Or: Once we get that treasure, we can go ashore and binge."
The song why I became a pirate and still am 😊👌
This song is so bad it had 41 dislikes
Those people ain't good enough to be stuck on pikes
They have have no sense of humor
they don't know just what they hate
LeChuck's gonna get them
Serve their livers on a plate
A pirate I was meant to be
Trim the sails and roam the sea!
That is a beautiful comment! Haha! I love it!
Oh! That’s a good one!
This what you get when you put Scrooge McDuck, Hefty Smurf, and Cornfed Pig on a boat.
IT SHALL BE A ROUSING BATTLE ONCE MORE CAPTAIN!!!!
The increasing frusteration, from "O-kay then, men, let's do this!" To "PLEASE STOP."
He looks like he's slowly losing his will to live!
This scene and Woodtick from MI2 show just how awesome the iMUSE system was - imagine being able to blend the verses together in any order depending on what the player chose....it simply wouldn't work when streaming CD audio...
it such a shame the song was cut in non-english versions
i know as a kid playing the spanish version i wouldve lost my mind, Monkey Island was always extremely funny to me
Easily the best part of the whole series of all the games.
Even though they are a useless crew you can’t help but love them
And once they've keelhauled their enemies, their song will float above 'em!
I keep singing this while playing AC Black Flag.
This comment just made my day XD
It is a shame they did not include it in the Sea Chanties
You also get a side mission to kill a pirate named Mancomb Seepgood, I think. Which was the name of a pirate on the first Monkey Island who said Guybrush's name was ridiculous.
The moment I saw the word orange I knew exactly how it was gonna go.
Yeah, that really NOTHING rhymes with Orange is always causing a melange of Feelings inside of me......
When the theatre director leaves the room 0.01 seconds and you’re the only serious one...
Serves Guybrush right. After torturing poor Edward with his songs on Plunder Island.
Sadly this part wasn't included in the German version. I guess it was to hard to translate it when it also has to rhyme somehow. But I like this scene so much ;)
wasn't included also in Italian version..such a shame :(
They are so happy and the song... If i were there i would join in!
ARRRRRRRGH MATEYS, the time be upon us once more, for sure it be PIRATE DAY! And so I came to search out this song, which be the best piratin' song ever.
I find this incredibly disturbing.... *plays it again....*
Love Monkey Island so much!
Me when Emuparadise died: a pirate I was meant to be
This was such a great game, but I remember there was always a glitch here and the patch just jumped past it so I never saw this part. How awesome.
This only is in the English version of the game, maybe that's why...
Spanish version just doesn't have this song because the translators couldn't translate it keeping the metrics and rhymes.
Neither did the German version.
Shame really.
Really?! I didn't know about that glitch! What caused the glitch? I never had that problem.
This song gets referenced in "It takes two". Recognized it instantly. (Pirate ship in the snow globe).
Yeah, man. I'm going to play this game again just to honor their memory!
Haggis is voiced by Alan Young (Scrooge McDuck). I like Alan Young
+Dror Bartal The way he sings this tune, he has a serious pair of lungs!
A pirate I was meant to be! Trim the sails and roam the sea!
May he rest in peace.
He sure like to play characters with Mc in their names. Mcduck, Mcmutton
Notice Guybrush's unamused expression whenever the wrong choice is selected....
Alright, I'm going to need an Alestorm cover of this song on my desk by Tuesday.
The irony of this song is that Pajama Sam, which Ron Gilbert had a hand in making, rhymed "orange" with "door hinge" just a year before this game. Wonder if the guys at LucasArts were taking notes?
The one, greatest moment in this so lovely game
best scene in a game ever.
The SCUMM scripting language is so well developed and versatile - it came a LONG way from the first verison
I think it was actually the iMUSE music system that they linked SCUMM with that made this one possible
"no more rhymes now i mean it!"
"anybody want a peanut?"
I only know this as a taunt from Garry's Mod. It's great to finally hear the whole song
Old but Gold
13 years later:
"A pirate I was meant to be!
Trim the sails and roam the sea!"
When no one is legally streaming interspecies reviewers in your region.
No idea why youtube suggested this to me.
But:
I am sad that this part was cut out in the german version of the game :(
I've replayed this game every couple of years since it was released and it never gets old
Every couple years since it released?! Shiver me timbers! So, you've played it about thirteen times now?
@@GuardianAngelEatos pretty much! some of those times have been me introducing someone to it and being there through their entire playthrough.
@@foolisnoteighteenyet Oh cool! That is fun! I have done that many times with my siblings, mostly my sister. It's fun to watch and see what people think of a game. More people should know about this amazing game!
The official anthem of the streaming wars
1:00 Guybrush is like "Why am I with them again?"
I would play it all over just to listen to this song!
Average open crew in sea of thieves
This is my childhood! :D
"but if ye slice yer hand on a rusty door hinge, you'll be sure to plunder! a pirate i was meant to be, trim the sails and roam the sea!"
door hinge does work, especially with a pirate accent. Doorenge!
That doesn't fit tho, it needs to end with door hinge lol
0:00 - 3:52
Walk up in the club; dance like that; get some bitches. 'Nuff said.
Why did I spend a half hour with this on loop? XD
Combine that with other users and you have several lifetimes. :D
This songs gives me goosebumps, and the finale is intresting ;). To conclude it's like life, in it's whole, everything solves in a weird way 🤣😂
"And we will get our map back and our REVENGE"
That's an approximate rhyme, it's only used as a rhyme in blues songs
Sea of Thieves galleon open crew experience
For my personal opinion is the best funny game
Pure Gold
Wonderful idea and song.
Alestorm, *PLEASE* cover this! The timing couldn't be more perfect now that a new Monkey Island is coming!
Love it after all that years ❤🎉
Also, imagine if someone started acting this way in Sea of Thieves. It would make my day.
It's hard getting pirates past all the singing and dancing. That was life on the open sea back in the time.
Haha this song means "Happy Childhood" to me. Thanks for upload it =)
25 years later and we still didn't find a rhyme to "Orange"
Pssht, hey? "Melange"?
20ish years later and I still cant get over the fact that they made the fucking song a puzzle
Oh I need to play this one again. 😂
This is the best song to sing while performing menial chores like washing up, doing laundry or perhaps just everyday looting, burning and pillaging.
I sing this every time I take the boat from Booty Bay to Ratchett
God this is so great
So catchy!
Rhyming "pirate" with "fire it" was ok, but rhyming "orange" with "door hinge" wasn't?
It's not about the rhyme itself, it's the whole sentence which sound wrong and kills the song. On top of that door hinge is not that easy to settle within' the timing of their singing.
Yes
I think he says "fire at"
“Actually that’s correct, and I’ll walk towards the doorhinge!”
Let's see if we can continue this!
"Alright you guys, let's get back on track"
+christopherbrown1988 "We will have steady sails with the winds on our back!"
I tried... ^^;;
+animemaniac25779 I approve.
We coast along the sea
In our schooner with black flag
We would tell you of our exploits
But we do not wish to brag
A pirate I was meant to be
Trim the sails and roam the sea
This singing is killing my thinking mood!
A Pirate I was meant to be
Trim the sails and roam the sea
I miss playing this game.
This is what Sea of Thieves truly needs as a shanty.
Edit: scratch that, every aspect of this is what the game needs.
Wish granted
I love this song so much! I’m definitely not listening to it on a loop trying to find a copy to download
