The Good Ship Venus
On the good ship Venus,
by hell, you should have seen us.
The captains name was Hopper,
by hell he had a whopper,
once around the deck
twice around his neck
and up his arse for a stopper.
The first engine mates name was Carter
by hell he was a farter.
When the ship did stop , they had to call
carter
the farter
to start'er.
.................
I can onlyt remember a couple of the verses, feel free to slot them
where it looks right.
The cabin boy's name was Tipper,
A flthy little nipper,
We filled his arse with broken glass,
And circumcised the skipper.
The captain's daughter was Mabel,
She was ready, willing and able,
She gave the crew, their daily due,
Spead wide on the kitchen table.
I vaguely remember someting about the figurehead.
Ah, memories of English Poetry in primary school.
