(Hmmmm.....) The sea’s like a pharmacy, clear and deep, Where everything has meaning, weight to keep. A ship, like any day, must have a name It shapes the course, from dawn to setting flame. haha.....haha You choose a name with purpose, don’t be shy, I’ll tell you now, before you set to fly: Whatever name you give the yacht today, That’s how she’ll sail, come what may. Whatever name you give the yacht today, That’s how she’ll sail, come what may. ey- ey-ey- ey- ey- ey!.. ey- ey-ey- ey- ey- ey!.. Call her "Hercules" and shout, "Full speed ahead!" She’ll break the polar ice without a second’s dread. But call her "Tub" and trouble’s sure to start That boat will gulp the water, even in a marsh, my Heart. That boat will gulp the water, even in a marsh, my Heart! Though boys are green and the schooner looks frail, Name her "Albatross" and she’ll never fail She’ll soar across the waves, so light and fair, As if the wind itself were helping her everywhere. But call her "Tub" and you’ll regret the day, For that same schooner’s bound to take in water anyway. That same schooner’s bound to take in water anyway! (Mmmm.....) The sea’s like a pharmacy, clear and deep, Where everything has meaning, weight to keep. A ship, like any day, must have a name It sets the tone, the very same, the same. bem-bem...bem-bem bem-bem...bem-bem bem-bem.....haha You choose a name with purpose, don’t forget, I’ll tell you now, before the journey’s set: Whatever name you give the schooner here today, That’s how she’ll sail, no matter what may sway. Whatever name you give the schooner here today, That’s how she’ll sail, no matter what may sway...ey- ey- ey.. no matter what may sway... here today
