When I was young and in my prime
I wanted to go to sea
And so I bought an Indian ship
And sailed away to sea
An Indian chief came up to me
And said that I looked fine
Hmmm hmmm
And put me in the bed to fry
Singing scatoothebungela

When I was young and in my prime
I wanted to go to sea
And so I bought an Indian ship
And tailed away to sea
An Indian chief came up to me
And said that I looked fine
He took me by the hand and cap
And put me in the bed to fry
Singing scatoothebungela

When I was young and in my prime
I wanted to go to sea
And so I bought a sailing ship
And sailed away to sea
An Indian chief came up to me
And said that I looked fine
He took me by the bollocks, dear
And put me in the bed to fry
Singing scatoothebungela (scatoothebungela)

My old man's a dustman
He wears a dustman's hat
He works to buy me trousers
And lives in a council's flat
He sang to the barman
And sang right to the top
On Monday they fished him up and he shouted
There's no place like home

I do like to be beside the seaside
I do like to be beside the sea
With the best band playing till they pom pom pom
Something else, something else

I'm leaning on the lamp post
On the corner of the street
In case a certain lady walks by
Oh me, oh my
I hope that little lady walks by
There's no other girl I would wait for
There's one I break any day for
Doo doo doo doo
She wouldn't leave me flat
She's not a girl like that
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful and marvellous
And something else, something else

Oh Mr. Woo
What can I do
