Every spring we can sail away
To the Isle of Skye if it's not too far
We shall round the Mull with our canvas full
Ah, grandchildren on yer knee, kisses and fekking sneezing all the while
Will we ever get there, will the Omega 3 run oot?

Sailed around by an owner who humbly
Used old paper charts
As preferred by old farts
And nearly ran into Wee Cumblae

There's a red-eyed, grey haired Para
Tae the North o Maryhill,
Wi a nose that simply drips the whole day lang.
An' a willie that is shrinkin',
An' an 'airseole that is stinkin',
An' a voice jest like a corbie when in sang
