Listen To Me

Listen to me and I will tell you this tail
Cross my heart and hope it is not true
It’s the story of a rotund navel captain
Who many hard ships had been through
Until one day he could take no mooring
So he climbed to the top of the yard sale
Then threw himself strait into the auction
And was overcome by a largely blue wail
Now they say on wintery summer knots
His ghost can be seen if you carelessly pier
But beware, he may take you also drowned
And he harpoons to have my name too here
