Norrington is Coming to Town!
Sung to the tune of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"

You better watch out.
You better not loot.
You better not poach or pilfer or shoot.
Norrington is coming to town.

He's making a list, checking it twice,
Gonna find out who wallows in vice.
Norrington is coming to town.

He sees you when you're plundering.
He's following in your wake.
He knows if you've been bad or worse,
So run fast for goodness sake!

With shrilling tin fifes and drilling snare drums,
Trampling of boots and thunder of guns,
Norrington is coming to town

He'll halt your depredation,
Wrest back what you would take.
He's built a sturdy gallows,
So be good for prudence sake.

You better watch out.
You better be sly.
All pirates he'll rout, I'm telling you why.
Norrington is coming to town!
