    Oh, me father was the keeper of the eddystone light
    And he slept with a mermaid one fine night
    From this union there came three
    A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me
    Chorus:
    Yo ho ho, the wind blows free, oh for the life on the rolling sea
    One day as i was a-trimmin' the glim
    Humming a tune from the evening hymn
    A voice from the starboard shouted, "ahoy!"
    And there was me mother a-sittin' on the buoy
    Chorus
    "oh what has become of me children three?"
    Me mother then she asked of me
    One was exhibited as a talking fish
    The other was served in a chafing dish
    Chorus
    Then the phosporus flashed in her ******* hair
    I looked again, but me mother wasn't there
    But i heard her voice echoing back through the night:
    "the devil take the keeper of the eddystone light!"
    Chorus
    Oh the moral of the story you'll learn when you find
    To leave god's creatures for what nature had in mind
    For fishes are for cookin', mermaids are for tales
    ******* is for sushi and protecting is for whales
    Chorus
