(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
Verse 1:
We sailed on the seas, just seeking some loot,
When we cast out our lines, oh, what a hoot!
But the whale came a-bursting, with a flip and a flop,
Oh woe! His great testicles got caught in the knot!
(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
Verse 2:
“Let me go, ye scallywags!” the big whale did cry,
His pride on the line, oh me, oh my!
With lines ‘round his jewels, he couldn’t swim free,
We laughed and we howled, “What a sight to see!”
(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
Verse 3:
We tugged at the ropes, with a grunt and a heave,
While the whale thrashed about, “Just let me leave!”
With flukes and with blubber, he flopped on the deck,
“Oh, what a scandal—look at my wreck!”
(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
Verse 4:
So we worked and we sweated till we set him free,
He thanked us with a splash and a wiggle of glee.
"Next time ye fish, don’t pick such a spot,
Or it'll be your bits that I’ll snare in the knot!"
(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
So raise up your cups to the whale's wild tale,
And remember to watch out when you set sail!
For a sailor's life is full of great fun,
Especially when fish tales leave us undone!
(Chorus)
Oh, the whale swam near with a mighty splash,
Caught in the lines, what a terrible crash!
With a "Yo ho!" and a laugh so hearty,
That whale's got a snag that’ll end this party!
