[Gm] [G] On the good ship Venus, by Christ you should have seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed sucking a dead man's penis
The captain's name was Lugger, by Christ he was a bugger
[C] He wasn't fit [G] to shovel shit from one ship to another
And [C] [G]
[C] [G]
the second meet was end, by Christ he had it handy
[C] Till they crushed his [G] cock on a jagged rock from coming in the brandy
The third mate's name was Morgan, by God he was a gorgon
[C] From half past [G] eight he played till late upon the captain's organ
[C] [G]
The captain's wife was Mabel, and by God was she able
To give the crew their daily screw upon the galley table
The captain's daughter Charlotte was born in red harlot
Her thighs at night were lily white, by morning they were scarlet
[C] The [G]
[C] [G]
cabin boy was Kipper, by Christ he was a nipper
[Am] He stuffed his ass with [G] broken glass and circumcised the skipper

And he fed the crew on menstrual snoo and hymen, sprite and semen
And the ship's dog was called Rover, and we turned the poor thing over
And ground and ground that fateful hound from Tenerife to Dover
