When I saw all the fighters lugging tons of gear,
I thought I'd have it easier in the Navy of Calontir.
With lots of swash and buckle, a tot of rum for cheer,
I'd like to be a sailor in the Navy of Calontir.

Yo-ho! Yo-ho! On land we'll sail our boat.
We'll hit the deck,but won't get wet, with never a ship afloat.

I've heard of lady swabbies, buxom without peer.
I had to join and ride the waves in the Navy of Calontir.
With little competition, I found my new career.
And now I am a sailor in the Navy of Calontir

Yo-ho! Yo-ho! On land we'll sail our boat.
We'll hit the deck,but won't get wet, with never a ship afloat.

So think of all the fighters with bunges 'cross their rear.
You never have to mess with that in the Navy of Calontir.
So sit and suck your Gatorade; I'll be drinking beer!
Don't you wish you'd signed aboard the Navy of Calontir.

Yo-ho! Yo-ho! On land we'll sail our boat.
We'll hit the deck,but won't get wet, with never a ship afloat.
