Who lives in a pirate ship over the sea?

The Seven Seas (me thinks, me map has skedaddled)
Avast Mateys,
Arrgh. Must I tell ye everything? Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day. Blimey, make those landlubbers walk the plank! Keep them 2 paces apart for Social Distancing! Harggh! And mind ye masks! We couldn’t have ye feeding the sharks in an unsafe manner! Next time they will Talk Like a Pirate! If there be a next time! They must outswim the sharks.
Step lively, lads! Keep harvesting those landlubbers! Let’s make the sharks fat and happy! This be my favorite day of the year! But how can I quaff rum with a mask? Curses! Now me eyepatch and mask have become tangled up like a labyrinth. Now where did I stash me pegleg? Me trusty cutlass? Me pistol?
Do I hear men and women singing Anchors Aweigh? The Navy can’t be here! Lads, hoist high the mainsails. Higher, boys, higher, turn our ship around! Load the cannons! Fire a broadside! Send the Navy ship to the bottom of the sea! Polly, don’t dare desert me! I will fry ye, feathers and all.
Lads, finish off the Navy ship! Lads? Lads? Stay away from the lifeboats! What was in me rum? Me head is about to rot off. No more rum for me. I never learned to swim! Curses! Now, what was I doing? Oh, yes. I do cotton to me exclamation marks. And, it’s Talk Like a Pirate Day!
Now be done with it!
