My grandson hung out with some tattood guys today. His parents sould not worry, except when you hear him singing in the shower:
CHORUS: I’ve a whale of a tale to tell you, lad,
A whale of a tale or two,
About the flapping fish, as well as the girls I’ve loved,
And nights like this with the moon above,
A whale of a tale as well as it’s all true,
I swear by my TATTOO,
There was Mermaid Minnie; met her down in Madagascar,
She would kiss me, anytime that I would request her,
Then one evening, her flame of love blew out,
Well blow me down as well as pick me up, she swapped me on behalf of a trout! CHORUS.
There was Typhoon Tessie; met her off the coast of Java,
When she kissed me, I’d bubble up like molten lava,
Then she gave me the scare of my young life,
Well blow me down as well as pick me up, she was the Captain’s wife! CHORUS.
There was Harpoon Hannah; had a face that’d manufacture you shudder,
Lips like fishhooks, as well as a nose just like a rudder,
If I kissed her, as well as held her tenderly,
Then there’s no sea monster big enough, to ever frighten me! CHORUS.
