Cayo Real
"Cayo Real"
HarHo! Says me now then do I so say~
Then let us with words so then now play~
Take up yer swords o'plumes so grand~
As to give us all words ne'er xpected a'land~
Steep then Seas... so as now to ye sail~
South to 'er Norther 'round in 'er gale~
Fare well ye sailors whot 'as been so bold~
Fer ye 'ave ne'er been not warned o'lassies so cold~
Come now ye 'round 'er binnacle all set~
Come now ye 'round fer naught shall ye fret~
Now do we sail for all whot we've wished~
Calm is a'horizon as all we 'ave fished~
Each one man a'deck shall wish to so be~
Such as meownself 'as seen o'such sea~
Set off.... set off.... such is 'er cry~
Let 'er no longer by this wetten dock lie~
Set off.... set off.... such is 'er wail~
Let me run down to me damndest caprail!
Hard as it mayhap be to listen to such~
For as such ship was a'given so much~
Listen did we & came for'ard a'plan~
Such as 'twas rare in eye o'any man~
Stealth we 'ad as down 'er mole we snuck~
Stealth we 'ad as we in 'er mud became stuck~
Yet oft were our 'ands found a'risen 'er strake~
Yet oft were our 'ands found a'deck in 'er wake~
For 'ad we listened well from a'start~
We'd all 'ad guessed that of others 'twere we apart~
Yet not of mind nor of reason well desired~
All whot 'ad been 'ad simply transpired~
Oft we go & so then we must~
Cling to that which is other than lust~
For shall we succumb to that which is just~
Fore'er should we be just such a bust~
Me I'll continue such as I am~
No No~ ..... not Lord O'Siam~
Yet he who controls all which he does~
As well is designed by so many above~
