OK ... *ahem*
"When Frederick was a little lad he proved so brave and daring,
His father thought he'd 'prentice him to some career seafaring.
I was, alas, his nursery maid and so it fell to my lot
To take and bing this promising boy apprentice to a pilot.
A life not bad for a hardy lad, 'tho surely not a high lot.
'Tho I'm a nurse, you might do worse than make your boy a pilot.
I was a stupid nursery maid, on breakers always stearing,
And I did not catch the word aright, thru being hard of hearing.
Mistaking my instructions which within my brain did gyrate,
I took and bound this promising boy apprentice to a pirate."
Whadja think?
