Southampton Irregular Poem by Pierre Rausch

Southampton Irregular
Hallow thee name be
Oh let England come
Hallow thee name be
Oh let England come
Hallowed thee name be
Hear us by all tear
Hear us beneath
In the daily skies
Welsh sailors riot
With love (like mine)
Torturous (like thine)
All saints march with car
The Irish ring from far
P&O approaches with no scar
All rescue boats have line-a-star
All sirens ring from far
P&O approaches with no scar
Rescue boats have line(n) a star
The saints walk with marching cars
Cankerous oily gap
The iceboat crack in dept
One wood' legging trap
Tankers cruise in labs
The tankers cruise to snap
Cankerous oily gap
One wood's legging trap
The iceboats crack to dept
The weather shifts in mood
Port workers prepare for flood
Sailors ship the goods
Poor workers pretty hood
The tankers cruise at lab
P&O approaches with no scar
Young prospect tartar
Southampton regulars seem to be
No Control in case of fear
Passport control on oden peer
Signals ring from far
A ferry visitor sips for tea
Open gates for you, open gates for me
Passenger on reeling sight to sea
