When Federic Was A Little Lad - 班战斯的海盗[00:00:00]

When Frederic was a little lad[00:00:05]

He proved so brave and daring[00:00:08]

His father thought he'd 'prentice him[00:00:11]

To some career seafaring[00:00:14]

I was alas his nurserymaid[00:00:17]

And so it fell to my lot[00:00:20]

To take and bind the promising boy[00:00:23]

Apprentice to a pilot[00:00:27]

A life not bad for a hardy lad[00:00:31]

Though surely not a high lot[00:00:35]

Though I'm a nurse you might do worse[00:00:39]

Than make your boy a pilot[00:00:45]

I was a stupid nurserymaid[00:00:53]

On breakers always steering[00:00:56]

And I did not catch the word aright[00:00:59]

Through being hard of hearing[00:01:02]

Mistaking my instructions[00:01:05]

Which within my brain did gyrate[00:01:08]

I took and bound this promising boy[00:01:11]

Apprentice to a pirate[00:01:16]

A sad mistake it was to make[00:01:21]

And doom him to a vile lot[00:01:25]

I bound him to a pirate you[00:01:30]

Instead of to a pilot[00:01:36]

I soon found out beyond all doubt[00:01:44]

The scope of this disaster[00:01:47]

But I hadnt the face to return to my place[00:01:50]

And break it to my master[00:01:52]

A nurserymaid is not afraid[00:01:55]

Of what you people call work[00:01:58]

So I made up my mind to go as a kind[00:02:01]

Of piratical maid-of-all-work[00:02:04]

And that is how you find me now[00:02:09]

A member of your shy lot[00:02:13]

Which you wouldnt have found had he been bound[00:02:18]

Apprentice to a pilot[00:02:23]
