“There is one grumpy pirate.
They call him Grumpy Gus.
He grunts and gripes and grouses,
and always makes a fuss.”
Grumpy Gus is one pirate that complains about everything, even about seeking treasure, an attitude that annoys his fellow pirates — so the Pirate Queen gives Gus an equally grumpy parrot in hopes that it will teach Gus a lesson and make him change his grumpy ways.
