Yeah Yeah Yeah
The good ship Venus
By Christ you should have seen us.
The figurehead was a nun in bed
And you know how the rest of it goes.
Well that's the way they tell it
But stories don't have to be true
And on Saturday night at the rugby club
We'll chew the guts out of you.
It was me and Hagerty.
Kitty with eyes so blue.
Me and Kitty Hagerty
Nothing we tell you is true.
1806...
We were kicking agaist the pricks
So we stole The Venus from under their noses
And swore we'd be convicts no more.
They called Kitty a pirate.
They branded me a who*e.
But I did what I did for the sake of my kid
It's easy to who*e when you're poor.
It was me and Hagerty.
Kitty with eyes so blue.
Me and Kitty Hagerty
Nothing they'll tell you is true.
We made the Bay Of Islands
We built a home by the sea.
Then Kitty got ill and she died in my arms
And the wind was as bitter as me.
They'll tell you I died of the pox
They'll tell you I perished at sea.
Did we pay the natives
To tell you they ate us
While we scuttled off to Chile.
