01x08 - Flood Tide

[bunniefuu]

scuffling cuttlefish they recognize me

talents at last want me to carry out a

spot of piracy for him no doubt for a

thousand pounds that's not bad not bad

at all

ah there you are horatio pugwash at your

service

that uh thousand pounds i take him away

and that my friends is the last you'll

see of him for a while

[Music]

poor captain paguash trapped by his own

stupidity and greed he lay in the

deepest dungeon of the town jail lit

only by one small window high above him

the jail was by the very water's edge

and a mere hundred yards away aboard the

black pig his shipmates held a gloomy

council of w*r

what do we do what do we do

ours about who storms the jail and

rescues him like impossible that

prison's well knight impregnable let's

blow up twirls with gunpowder and and

blow up our captain sky high no no

willie

i've got it

there's the dungeon window

and the captain must be at about

that level right

we'll bore a tunnel to the dungeon at

low tide but that'd take weeks no no

quite a little one we'll use this you'll

see

it was 10 o'clock and dark and the tide

was right down when tom and the pirates

set off to rescue their captain

right

you keep watch willie we'll start

drilling

[Applause]

dollar thing dolphins what again

suppose i'd better try to get some sleep

[Applause]

just a bit more we must be nearly

through by now

[Applause]

oh

well i'll be scuppered

and if that's meant to be an escape hole

it's a bit small even for my slim figure

but what's this a note on the end of a

stick

we'll pick you up at high tide hope you

can float and it signed tom

but that doesn't make sense

back at high tide

what's the tide got

why shadowing sharks oh they're flooding

the dungeon

hey tom ladd the tide's flooding the

drill hole i know but but the dungeon

will fill up with water i know and our

captain will be drowned oh no he won't

not if he can keep afloat

[Applause]

now all we do is wait till the dawn and

the hunt

[Applause]

help i'm freezing let me out

in the packet while the pink whales the

window

and by now if i'm not mistaken he must

be nearly able to reach the window

yes there he is

that's right hold on captain we'll soon

have you out crappy master mate that's

right

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

and very soon the pirates had their

captain back on board again and the

black pig was sailing away into the dawn

the crew boasted like anything about the

heroic rescue of their captain now

asleep and snug in his blind

but tom was busy ringing out the

captain's wet clothes

he said

nothing

[Music]

so
