Sea-shanty to the tune of 'Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes-Benz!"
Oh Allie won't you lend me a Reflex 38,
My friends all have first 40s, and we can't finish late
We've worked hard on our sailing, in some varied sea states
So Allie can we play on the Reflex 38.
Oh Julian won't you find us a wind strength of 3
I'm fed up of force 8 Jules, it's too scary for me.
I squeal when we heel more than 15 degrees
So Jules won't you find me a calm bit of sea.
Oh Mike won't you give us a rope that's not blue
We got 2 for the Spinny, Halyards G1 and S2,
It's a bugger in the night Mike to pick which one to use
So please won't you give us a rope that's not blue.
Oh Sharon please don't make me go up to the bows
Denise needs a snorkel to venture past the shrouds
And when Jon is helming you are guaranteed to drown
So Sharon please don't make me go up to the bows.
Philippe can you sort out a night on the town,
Sacha and Ed like to party, we cannot let them down
Bob and Ian will do the wine list, the best that can be found
So Philippe can you sort out a night on the town.
