There once was a man
His name was Magellan
A Portuguese skipper
The girls found him cute
He sailed with five ships
To find the East Indies
Then come back to Spain
With a bounty of loot
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Oh happy Magellan
Starting your journey
With hardly a care
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Strong, brave Magellan
You’ll find the East Indies
You just don’t know where
They crossed the Atlantic
And spotted a country
Magellan said,
"It’s the East Indies at last!"
But then someone shouted,
"Hey, that’s Argentina!"
Magellan got cranky
And chopped down the mast
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Settle down, Magellan
Put down that axe
There’s no time to despair
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Keep trying, Magellan
You’ll find the East Indies
You just don’t know where
A great storm arose
In the mighty Pacific
The five little ships
Were diminished to three
At last land was sighted
Magellan was happy
But then someone shouted,
"Hey, that’s Chile!"
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Cheer up, Magellan
Check out your map
And don’t tear out your hair
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Keep trying, Magellan
You’ll find the East Indies
You just don’t know where
It took them five months
But they crossed the Pacific
They spotted a land
That was dotted with palms
Magellan proclaimed,
"Yes! That’s the East Indies!"
But then someone shouted,
"Hey, I think that’s Guam!"
Ay-yi-yi-yi
Oops, Magellan
Your fun little journey’s
Become a nightmare
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Keep trying, Magellan
You’ll find the East Indies
You just don’t know where
They sailed due west
To the Philippine Islands
Magellan was pleased
As the natives drew near
But then someone shouted,
"I think they’re attacking!"
Magellan said, "What?"
And got hit by a spear
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Farewell, Magellan
You almost made it
It’s really not fair
Whoopie ti-yi-yo
Oh, ghost of Magellan
The East Indies islands
Were right over there!
EDIT: Oh, wibble!
