This time last December, I was called to serve, with the Royal Navy in Iraq
I kissed goodbye my family and headed off to war
I couldn’t guarantee them I’d return
And I would never trivialise, the work the Army do
But it seems like it’s the Navy lads that are going to see this through
So join the Navy, its nothing like you’ve heard
Everyone agrees now that the stereotype’s been blurred
And it’s absurd to think of lonely men at sea
The’re just like you and me as macho as they come
With strictly no bum fun
We’ve got a female capital
Her name’s Captain Louise
She’s fearsome with a skinhead and she’s seen the seven seas
She’s got no sense of humour and disciplines the crew
But in truth she likes it even less when I just call her Lou
The seas get awfully wavy when you are sailing in the Navy
But we still need you
To join the Navy
The women are so few
I could reinforce the stereotype but I don’t think that’s cool in fact it’s
uncool
The’re just like you and me they’re not just men at sea
As macho as they come
With strictly no bum fun anymore
This time last December, I was called to serve, with the Royal Navy in Iraq
It was my first deployment with the boys in blue
If I hadn’t joined I’d still be at home probably sniffing glue
Our submarine is yellow but I don’t feel that mellow
As John Lennon and the Beatles did portray
And I wish I understood just what we’re fighting for
I get real claustrophobic, we have real tiny doors
We could be like the Beatles all you need is love
But when I wake up Monday I’ll be back right in the sub with you
So join the Navy it’s nothing like you’ve heard
Everyone agrees now that the stereotype’s been blurred
And it’s absurd to think of lonely men at sea
The’re just like you and me as macho as they come
With strictly no bum fun
