The Accountancy Shanty

An interesting little ditty sung, written, and compsed by Eric Idle, with help from John Du Prez

Full speed ahead, Mister Cohen

Up, up, up your premium
Up, up, up your premium

Scribble away...
(And balance the books)

Scribble away...
(And balance the books)

It's fun to charter and accountant
And sail the wide accountancy....
To find, explore, the funds offshore
And skirt the shoals of bankrupycy.

It can be manly in insurnace.
We'll up your premium semi-annually.
It'l all tax-deducatable.
We're fairly incorruptable.
We're sailing on the wide accountancy.

Oh this is fun, Mr. Cohen.
Fetch me another exotic charoot!

To port!
Bring a port to sherry!  And a medium dry sherry to port!

Balance the books!
