Jack Horntip Lyr Req: A Little Bit of Heaven (military parody) (10) RE: Lyr Req: A Little Bit of Heaven (military parody) 15 May 25

NO COMMENT

Sure a little bit of dirt and shit fell out the sky one day,
And it landed in the hogwash not so many miles away;
And when the Navy found it sure it looked so bleak and bare,
They said suppose we leave it for a Naval base up there.
So they dotted it with battleships to make its lakes look grand,
And they crowded it with matelots, the best in all the land;
Then they sprinkled it with rain and sleet and hail and bloody snow,
And when they had it finished sure they called it SCAPA FLOW.

1968. The Fleet Air Arm Songbook. p.132. This song is retitled "Scapa Flow"
in the 2nd edition with the tune listed as "A Little Bit of Heaven".
