    Story Behind the Song
    As the title aptly suggests, the songs about a sailor. More specifically, it's about a boy who quits school and runs away to the navy. There's no meaning or anything, we just thought it'd be cool to write something down these lines for a laugh. It's turned out to be our staple live track!

    Lyrics
    I knew a boy and remember when
    He'd go looking for sailor men
    He would hook up with them
    And wouldn't come back till half past ten
    His banter got in the way of school
    Learned nothing, was a fool
    He'd sit by the swimming pool
    And over sailors he would drool

    (CHORUS)
    ooo argh! He joined the navy!
    ooo argh! Sailed seven seas!
    ooo argh! In the navy, he could do whatever he pleased cos...
    He's a sailor! Captain Pugwash!
    A beautiful sailor! Seaman Staines!
    You won't find better matey, till you search the pier again!

    Now we know what happened to this boy
    He manned the decks and said "ahoy!"
    Took his collection of cuddly toys
    But left behind boyfriend Elroy
    Does he know what we now do?
    I don't think he has a clue
    Probably sailing to Timbuktoo
    With his new boyfriend called Hugh

    (CHORUS)
