Fer the Fusion ship | A |
An' I tells it straight an' square | B |
I'm a rare old tar | C |
As nigh an' far | C |
You'll not meet ev'rywhere | C |
I've seen 'er sail | D |
In many a gale | D |
But she's done 'er final trip | A |
So I 'itches me breeches an' a simple tale I pitches | E |
O' this good ole Fusion ship | A |
'Twas Alf an' Joe | F |
Long years ago | F |
They built 'er any 'ow | G |
Twas a strange ole skiff | H |
With 'er keel skew wiff | H |
An' a double ended bow | I |
Yus a nose each end | J |
An' a grecian bend | J |
Amidships quaint an' queer | C |
When I seen 'er take the water 'Ho ' ses I 'she is a snorter ' | K |
An' I gives a 'earty cheer | C |
- | |
- | |
An' sail she did | L |
But I'l lay ten quid | L |
No ship befor enor since | M |
Done 'ark 'er tricks | N |
'Er darned ole fix | N |
'Ud make longshoremen wince | M |
She'd bob and bow | I |
The blamed old scow | I |
Like a wet an' foolish 'en | O |
An' 'er subsekint behav'er an' the effects fer to save 'er | C |
Was a treat fer sialor men | O |
- | |
An' Alf 'e was | P |
'Er skipper 'cos | P |
No other could be got | Q |
To sail that craft | R |
An' fore an' aft | R |
They was a rare ole lot | Q |
So queer a crew | C |
I never knew | C |
An' Joe 'e was fust mate | S |
An' to 'ear 'im scold and rate 'er when 'e tried to navigate 'er | C |
Well I tell yeh it was great | S |
- | |
Fer some they said | T |
To point 'er 'ead | T |
Fer nor' nor' east by east | T |
Fer Tory Bay | U |
An' some said 'Nay ' | - |
An' the langwidge never eased | T |
An' some they pressed | T |
To sail doo west | T |
Fer the ole Freetection port | T |
An' the way she waltzed an' wobbled while they 'owled an' fought an' squabbled | T |
Ho I never seen sich sport | T |
- | |
An' poor ole Joe | F |
'Is watch below | F |
Was mostly short an' sweet | T |
Fer 'e never knew | C |
Wot time that crew | C |
Might up an' change 'er beat | T |
But Alf the boss | P |
'E took 'is doss | P |
An' 'e let 'er sail or stop | V |
Fer in days when seas was finer 'e was skipper of a liner | C |
An' 'e sorter felt the drop | V |
- | |
Now she dropped at last | T |
'Er anchor fast | T |
In the 'arbor of Recess | P |
'Er sheets is tore | C |
An' 'er plates is wore | C |
An' she'll sail no more I guess | P |
Alf got the pip | A |
On 'er final trip | A |
An' there's some as said 'e swore | C |
'E was sickened of 'er capers so 'e 'anded in 'id papers | P |
An' she'll put to sea no more | C |
But it's 'ip 'ip 'ip | A |
fer the Fusion ship | A |
Fer the navigatin' 'en | C |
Since 'er cruise begun | C |
She 'as give great fun | C |
To us 'eart sailor men | C |
We 'ave cheered an' laughed | T |
An' joked an' chaffed | T |
Since the day she put to sea | P |
So I takes a pull and 'itches as our 'abit is my breeches | P |
An' I give 'er three times three | P |
