letra de i shipp'd, d'ye see, in a revenue sloop - gilbert and sullivan
[richard, chorus]
i shipped, d’ye see, in a revenue sloop
and, off
a merchantman we see
a frenchman, going free
so we made for the bold mounseer
d’ye see?
we made for the bold mounseer
but she proved to be a – and she up with her ports
and fires with a thirty-two!
it come uncommon near
but we answered with a cheer
which paralysed the parley-voo
d’ye see?
which paralysed the parley-voo!
which paralysed the parley-voo
d’ye see?
which paralysed thе parley-voo!
then our captain he up and hе says, says he
“that chap we need not fear, –
we can take her, if we like
she is for to strike
for she’s only a
d’ye see?
she’s only a darned mounseer!
but to fight a french fal-lal – it’s like hittin’ of a gal –
it’s a lubberly thing for to do;
for we, with all our faults
why, we’re st-rdy british salts
while she’s only a parley-voo
d’ye see?
while she’s only a poor parley-voo!”
while she’s only a parley-voo
d’ye see?
while she’s only a poor parley-voo!
so we up with our helm, and we scuds before the breeze
as we gives a compassionating cheer;
froggee answers with a shout
as he sees us go about
which was grateful of the poor mounseer
d’ye see?
which was grateful of the poor mounseer!
and i’ll wager in their joy they kissed each other’s cheek
(which is what them furriners do)
and they blessed their lucky stars
we were hardy british tars
who had pity on a poor parley-voo
d’ye see?
who had pity on a poor parley-voo!
who had pity on a poor parley-voo
d’ye see?
who had pity on a poor parley-voo!
