Lyrics

Part 1[]

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: Shake!

Austin: Like shiverin' timbers.

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: Wave!

Austin: Your arms... like a flag! Put your hand to your brow, turn your head to the bow. That's the first step of the Scalawag!

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: The Scalawag! The dance that pirates do! The Scalawag! Scalawag! And you can do it, too! Rock!

Austin: Back and forth... like a ship.

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: Stomp!

Austin: Like you're walking, walking the plank. Back up and turn, then jump to the stern. Now, you've got that step in the bank!

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: The Scalawag! The dance that pirates do! The Scalawag! Scalawag! And you can do it, too!

Uniqua: Look at me... I'm doin' the move. I'm in a sizzlin' pirate groove!

Pablo: Look at me... I'm getting the step. Now, I'll add some pirate pep!

Austin: Look at you... you're dancing with heart! Now, let's learn the final part of the Scalawag! The dance that pirates do! The Scalawag! Scalawag! And you can do it, too!

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: Leap!

Austin: Up with your new sea legs.

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: Sink!

Austin: Down like a treasure chest. Cross your arms and wiggle. Give the mast a jiggle! Now, you're Scalawaggin' with the best!

Uniqua, Pablo, and Austin: The Scalawag! You can do it, too! Scalawag! Scalawag! The Scala-Scala-Scala-Scala-Scalawag! Scalawag! Scalawag! The Scala-Scala-Scala-Scala-Scalawag!

Part 2[]

Pablo: Drop straight down like an anchor! Shimmy like a fluttering, fluttering flag! Put your hand on your hips, stretch out your fingertips. That's how you do the Scalawag!

Tasha: (speaking) The Scalawag? I can do that!

Pablo: The dance that pirates do!

Tasha: The Scalawag! Scalawag! And I can do it, too! Twist my body... like a wave! Stand straight like a telescope! Arms by my side, extend my feet, and slide... I'm Scalawaggin' now, I hope!

Pablo and Tasha: The Scalawag! The dance that pirates do! The Scalawag! Scalawag! You can do it, too!
