The Lyrics
I slipped, made a gaffe; quickly in flows the water.
Uh-oh!
That move was so lame, effectively boat slaughter.
Oh no!
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down it is today.
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down and right away.
It’s cold as ice; I need aid ASAP.
Brrr, brrr!
Hadn’t given a thought to a PFD.
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down it is today.
Gonna drown with my boat. Save me!
Going down and right away.
Sink away deep in bight.
Fast the drink comes in; there’s no help in sight.
Soon, I fear, I gonna lose my life.
A schmuck and dope, got scant hope
And so I am sinking with my hole-riddled boat.
Can’t swim laps ’cause I don’t know how to float.
Going down with my boat. Crazy
is the thought I might be saved.
Gonna drown with my boat. Davy
Jones’ locker I never craved.
Uh-oh!
That move was so lame, effectively boat slaughter.
Oh no!
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down it is today.
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down and right away.
It’s cold as ice; I need aid ASAP.
Brrr, brrr!
Hadn’t given a thought to a PFD.
Going down is my boat. Save me!
Going down it is today.
Gonna drown with my boat. Save me!
Going down and right away.
Sink away deep in bight.
Fast the drink comes in; there’s no help in sight.
Soon, I fear, I gonna lose my life.
A schmuck and dope, got scant hope
And so I am sinking with my hole-riddled boat.
Can’t swim laps ’cause I don’t know how to float.
Going down with my boat. Crazy
is the thought I might be saved.
Gonna drown with my boat. Davy
Jones’ locker I never craved.

You must have had boating tragedies on your mind yesterday. At least you left the gore out (though I suppose that the trauma of drowning in ice cold water was unpleasant.) Thank you, and may your real experiences be happier than your parody boat life. 555
