He's a pirate now indeed!
Here's good luck to Frederic's ventures!

I was a stupid nurserymaid,
On breakers always steering,
And I did not catch the word aright,
Through being hard of hearing;
Mistaking my instructions,
Which within my brain did gyrate,
I took and bound this promising boy
Apprentice to a pirate.
A sad mistake it was to make
And doom him to a vile lot.
I bound him to a pirate— you!
Instead of to a pilot. correct answers When Frederic was a little lad

When I sally forth to seek my prey
I help myself in a royal way.
I sink a few more ships, it's true,
Than a well-bred monarch ought to do;
But many a king on a first-class throne,
If he wants to call his crown his own,
Must manage somehow to get through
,More dirty work than ever I do, correct answers Oh Better far to live and die
The pirate king

Oh is there not one maiden here
Whose homely face and bad complexion,
Have caused all hope to disappear
Of ever winning mans affection
To such a one if such there be
I swear by heavens arch above you
if you will cast your eyes on me
However plain you'll be ill love you,
How ever plain you'll be. correct answers Oh is there not one maiden breast?

I know our mythic history, King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's;
I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox,
I quote in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus,
In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous;
,I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies,
I know the croaking chorus from The Frogs of Aristophanes!
Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music's din afore,
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore. correct answers I am the very
model of the modern major general

Though to us it's evident,
Tarantara! tarantara!
These attentions are well meant,
Tarantara!
Such expressions don't appear,
Tarantara! tarantara!
Calculated men to cheer,
Tarantara!
Who are going to meet their fate
In a highly nervous state.
Tarantara! tarantara! tarantara!
Still to us it's evident
These attentions are well meant.
Tarantara! tarantara! tarantara!
Go and do your best endeavour,
And before all links we sever,
We will say farewell for ever.
Go to glory and the grave!
Go to glory and the grave!
For your foes are fierce and ruthless,
False, unmerciful, and truthless;
Young and tender, old and toothless,
All in vain their mercy crave. correct answers when the foeman bears his steel

When the enterprising burglar's not a-burgling -
Not a-burgling.
When the cut-throat isn't occupied in crime
'Pied in crime,
, He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling -
Brook a-gurgling,
And listen to the merry village chime -
Village chime.
When the coster's finished jumping on his mother -
On his mother,
He loves to lie a-basking in the sun -
In the sun.
Ah, take one consideration with another -
With another,
A policeman's lot is not a happy one.
Ah!
When constabulary duty's to be done, to be done,
A policeman's lot is not a happy one, happy one. correct answers When a felon's not engaged in
his employment

Come friends, who plough the sea
Truce to navigation
Take another station
Let's vary piracy
With a little burglary
Here's your crowbar
And your centre bit
Your life preserver
You may want to hit
Your silent matches
Your dark lantern seize
Take your file
And your skeletonic keys
Tarantara,
With Cat like tread
Tarantara
In silence dread
