Merrick's Tales of the Hungering Deep - One last shanty...

  • Merrick has left behind a journal...

    Before I retire, I wanted to write one last shanty, inspired by some words I heard being bellowed from me speaking trumpets.

    This one definitely won't summon any man-eating sea monsters. In fact, I promise to never cause so much trouble again:

    We're no strangers, to this cove...
    You know the pirate code and so do I!
    A pile of treasure's what I'm thinking of...
    You wouldn't get this from any other pi... rate!
    Never gonna brig you up,
    Never gonna let you drown,
    Never gonna sail around,
    And maroon you!
    Never gonna steal your eye,
    Never gonna not say 'aye'!
    Never gonna sell your booty,
    For a doubloon!

    ... it's a work in progress. I think I'll let me fellow pirates fill in the gaps.

    My son Derrick seems to think it's hilarious. He suggested the title 'Merrick Rolled'. I don't get it.


    This is one of Merrick's new journals that you can find telling the tales of the Hungering Deep. You can find this journal at the Killer Whale Wreckage (L,14). There will be a crows nest in between the two main islands. After that you climb to the crows nest and it will be resting on the guard rail. The shanty was made up & sung by @Chayification through the speaking trumpet after the Hungering Deep ended, and is parody of the song by Rick Astley called Never Gonna Give You Up.
