As part of our halfway celebrations Ninky entertained the rest of the crew with the Tranquilizer rap.

We thought we should share.........



The Tranquilizer Rap

(chorus)
We're T-to-the-Q
Sailing on da ocean blue,
I know what you're thinking; we don't have Sue
But dorado and tinned mushrooms will do.

Don't touch the sweets; they're for Robin
They keep him awake when his head starts bobbin'
He nearly OD'd and started to choke
But he's the guy to call when there's something broke (Robinnnnn!)

My name is Lee, Lee, I need more tea
No sugar, one sugar, two sugar, three
Served on a cushion is how I like it besta
Now excuse me it's time for another siesta

(repeat chorus)

And then there's Neil, a Yorkshireman you know
Related to Dirty Bertie? Fo sho!
His jokes may not be all that appropriate
But his fish-catching skills sure make up for it

Skipper Rich, cigarette in hand
Is the man that leads this merry band
His sailing skills don't need no apology
'Though you may hear him cursing at stupid technology

(repeat chorus)

On deck Scott, Neil's washer of dishes
When he's not too busy spotting big fishes
Cool and calm, you won't see him frown
Not even when trying to sleep through a big smackdown

Don't forget me, deck candy
Doing another chocolate inventory
Eye-shots of Jaegarmeister? No fret!
Still hoping for a baby dolphin as a pet (please Rich...!)

(repeat chorus)

Bow line, round turn, half hitch, clove hitch
Auto-pilot on, now who's today's tea bitch?
Pub quiz and card games, surfing the fender
All looking forward to our Rodney Bay bender

As we continue sailing
da ocean blue
a sincere shout out
to the brilliant crew
of this beautiful boat,
T-to-the-Q
