Oh, me father was the keeper of the eddystone light
And he slept with a mermaid one fine night
From this union there came three
A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me
Chorus:
Yo ho ho, the wind blows free, oh for the life on the rolling sea
One day as i was a-trimmin' the glim
Humming a tune from the evening hymn
A voice from the starboard shouted, "ahoy!"
And there was me mother a-sittin' on the buoy
Chorus
"oh what has become of me children three?"
Me mother then she asked of me
One was exhibited as a talking fish
The other was served in a chafing dish
Chorus
Then the phosporus flashed in her ******* hair
I looked again, but me mother wasn't there
But i heard her voice echoing back through the night:
"the devil take the keeper of the eddystone light!"
Chorus
Oh the moral of the story you'll learn when you find
To leave god's creatures for what nature had in mind
For fishes are for cookin', mermaids are for tales
******* is for sushi and protecting is for whales
Chorus
