[00:14.78] Ah, ye've gotta be joking, yr tekkin' the piss,
[00:18.79] I'd have to be stupid to go on wi' this,
[00:22.50] I wasn't born yesterday, or even last week,
[00:26.59] It's someone with sailing experience ye seek?
[00:30.18] I wouldn't sail with you's on the last ship aground,
[00:34.16] In a biblical flood, I'd be better off drowned,
[00:37.88] So drink up yr bevies and have a good sup,
[00:41.73] I'll no part o' this fancy O' Brian's dreamed up,
[00:45.67] Find some other idiot to pilot your craft,
[00:49.33] And tomorrow ye'll be sober.
[00:52.94] Hadaway, hadaway, hadaway, with ye's all,
[00:57.45] Ye know ye've got nowt ye've got nothing at all,
[01:01.49] Hadaway, yr just pissin' yr beer up the wall,
[01:05.48] And you're out of your tiny minds.
[01:09.50] I had a friend on the ships his name was Joe Dorsey,
[01:13.35] He'd get into port he'd be straight to the horsies,
[01:16.76] He begged and he pleaded, he was some operator,
[01:20.52] 600 to one, and he'd pay me back later,
[01:24.66] He claimed it was certain that we'd be in clover,
[01:28.65] And the next time we sailed past the White Cliffs of Dover,
[01:32.23] We'd be sailing a yacht of our own to the Med,
[01:35.94] I lent him the money, I was out of me head,
[01:39.97] I didn't see hide of him for nine months, maybe ten,
[01:43.78] And didn't the bastard just ask me again?
[01:47.69] For the loan of a tenner he'd pay me back soon,
[01:51.66] All the money he owed me, I answered the loon,
[01:55.54] Hadaway, hadaway, hadaway, with ye's all,
[01:59.44] Ye know ye've got nowt ye've got nothing at all,
[02:03.25] Hadaway, yr just pissin' yr beer up the wall,
[02:07.22] And you're out of your tiny minds.
[02:11.20] I once had a girl down in Tenerife,
[02:15.12] A passionate courtship albeit brief,
[02:18.82] But what happened next, it just beggared belief,
[02:22.49] If I tell ye, ye'll be sober.
[02:26.08] The second night in she claims she's with child,
[02:30.67] Afore yesterday night she'd been pure, undefiled,
[02:34.75] I must be the father, court papers she'd filed,
[02:38.28] So what did I tell her me rovers?
[02:42.10] Hadaway, hadaway, hadaway, with ye's all,
[02:46.24] Ye know ye've got nowt ye've got nothing at all,
[02:50.08] Hadaway, yr just pissin' yr beer up the wall,
[02:53.60] Ye think you've got a case, you've got sweet bugger all,
[02:57.34] And you're out of your tiny minds,
[03:01.21] And you're out of your tiny minds,
[03:04.99] And you're out of your tiny minds.
[03:15.02]
