Ref:parody of 'Down below' it reminded me of a similar song [sorry Ross, but until I read the RN version I'd clean forgot this]. At the bottom of the hull Ch. Down below That's where you'll find the bilge Ch. Down below Full of rubbish, full of grime Full of sludge, and full of grime Full of shit, O never mind! Ch. Down below There's cockroached galore There dead rats by the score There's things that have been seen Far worse than your worse dreams The thought 'ud make you scream. When the bilges overflow It's down there you must go The apprentice was sent down Then we heard a dreadful sound And not a trace was found. But sometimes you will hear A tale to make you cheer How on the 'Clan MsGill They found a gold bar down the bilge So there's hope for us still .
