Paroles de Sea shanty

Dear dirty london in the pouring rain
I wish to god i was back on the sea again
Though that belongs to the world of never will be
There was never a wilder bastard than me on the sea
I could fuck all the whores in damnation me boys
Though they wriggled and hollered and made a great noise
Then i'd drink till i stank and then drink plenty more
And i won't go down to the sea any more
But if i had ten pounds then i'd raise a loud cheer
And i'd toast all me neighbours both distant and dear
And i'd shoot back great belly-crippling buckets of beer
And a pox and a curse on the people round here
Wouldn't give you me the price of a half pint of beer
Wouldn't give you me the price of a cup of good cheer
a pox and a curse on the people round here

A man's ambition must indeed be small
to write his name upon a shithouse wall
But before i die i'll add my regal scrawl
To show the world i'm left with sweet fuck all
And when all of us bold shithouse poets do die
A monument grand they will raise to the sky
A monument made just to mark our great wit
A monument of solid shit now me boys
I met with bill james we fought over crusts
I called him a whore and he booted me crotch
Then we shared out the jack and we thought it a treat
The compliments pass when the quality meet
The compliments pass when the quality meet
The compliments pass when the quality meet
The compliments pass when the quality meet
