Assessment of suitability for parodying

General

This is one of the easier songs on a generally difficult album. It is not dense on lyrics. The vocabulary is not particularly basic, but it poses no terrible burdens either. All in all, potential fun to work with.

Black Pearl crew-specific

It was a good choice. Given all the incomplete character histories in the franchise, the Crew can relate to not remembering things and ending up wondering.

Behind the scenes

What’s to Blame was actually my second parody of this song. The first, That Captain, left a lot to be desired when it came to rhyming.
