Here's an alternative last verse to "The Blow at Witch's Hole":

I was the sole survivor, me messmates drowned that day,
The Coast Guard came a-racing up, and snatched me from the wave,
They snatched me from the wave, me lads, and saved me sorry skin,
Surely I'd have drowned as well, (yes, drowned as well!)
If I hadn't broken wind!

Considerably more tasteful IMHO,
