Drink Up, Me Hearties, Yo Ho!
Today is "Talk Like A Pirate Day"!
Honest... http://www.talklikeapirate.com
And, since I have to go to work this morning (in a raging gale) at a financial company, let's all sing the "Accountancy Shanty"!
Monty Python - Accountancy Shanty
(written by: Eric Idle & John Du Prez)
LEAD PIRATE:
Full speed ahead, Mr. Cohen!
CHORUS:
Up, up, up your premium. Up, up, up your premium.
PIRATE:
Scribble away!
CHORUS:
Up, up, up your premium.
PIRATE:
And balance the books.
CHORUS:
Up, up, up your premium.
PIRATE:
Scribble away!
CHORUS:
Up, up, up your premium.
PIRATE:
But manage the books.
CHORUS:
Up, up, up.
PIRATES:
It's fun to charter an accountant
And sail the wide accountancy,
To find, explore the funds offshore
And skirt the shoals of bankruptcy!
It can be manly in insurance.
We'll up your premium semi-annually.
It's all tax deductible.
We're fairly incorruptible,
We're sailing on the wide accountancy!
LEAD PIRATE:
Oh, this is fun, Mr. Cohen!
PIRATE:
Sail away!...
CHORUS:
Up, up, up...
LEAD PIRATE:
Fetch me another exotic salute. To port! Bring her
port to shell out! And the medium guys shell out to
port! Balance the books! Bring me another small
shellfish, Mr. Cohen...
This bit of lunacy brought to you by...
