THE PREGNANT SWORDFISH* (TUNE: "She was poor but she was Honest ")
Oh, I used to think my Swordfish Was as slow as she was tame, But I'm sorry to inform you She has lost her maiden name.
For she's going to have a baby; You can see that by the shape. You can tell from her performance She's been sub-jected to rape!
See that bloody great protrusion? You can spot it from afar. If you ask me what's inside it - It's a bastard like its ma!
Once my thoroughbred old Swordfish Was my pride and my delight, But I've had her now she's preggers; I'll go fly some other kite.
*In January, 1944, 811 Sqn. were re-equipped with Swordfish Mark III, fitted with the Mk.XI radar, with bulbous scanner under the fuselage.
WWII era parody from The Fleet Air Arm Songbook, Mark II.
