We just got back form overseas
Me and me shipmate Dick
Pompey baracks was choc-a-blok
Enough to make you sick
So to the draughting office we goes
To volunteer to get out
"Foreign service or submarines
otherwise there's nout"
That's what the R.P.O told us
It didn't make our day
We'd just got back from overseas
And submarines, No way!
That night we had a run ashore
We tipped afew tots back
We both displayed a kind of a glow
Well you've heard of jolly jack
When we got back to our R.N.B
Says Dick lets put down our names
for submarines, you know
It could be fun and games
"Fun and games? you idiot"
or something like that i cried
"them floated boxes made of steel
you wont get me inside"
We argued for a long long time
Til i at last gave in
In a couple of days we found Ourselves drafted to Dolphin
That's how i became a submariner
But what you ask of Dick
He went and failed D.S.E.A
the stupid silly fellow!
