Ohhhhh, the year was 1778...

How about limmericks? Lol

There was a young lass of Madras
     Who had a magnificent ass
     Not rounded and pink
     As you’d probably think
     But was grey, had long ears, and ate grass.

Puts on heavy atmospheric goth rock

"Wait no, not like that"

Aye, lad, we can add in some trad Irish drinking, rebellion and worker's songs to shake it up a bit.

Please could you share some of your trad irish drinking worker songs to a fellow crewman ?

Look up the Dubliners to start with. They covered a lot of material of varying subjects.

Sit ye down and have a listen, lad, to the tale, of the mariner's revenge.

If it don't put some hurdy in your gurdy, I fear you've seen either far too little, or far too much, of these merciless and farsical cybernetic seas.

My ship, my rules, and if you can't keep your grimy mitts off the stereo, you can walk the plank like that one did. No sharks, though, so there's that. I mean, really, how much damage could a rasher of piggies do, eh? 😝

How I wish I was in Sherbrook noowwwwwwwwwww

A letter of marque came from the king to the scummiest vessel I've ever seen!

The Mollusk by Ween has all of this and more.

give me remixes🥺

Shipwrecked - Alestorm [Drop Goblin remix]

Would mashups suffice? Something tells me there's at least one band stitching together Metal & shanty w/ soul-ripping fretwork and revolutionary inspirations. 🤞🏼

Of course! Load up a bunch of sea shanties and a good chance a few of them have played other styles too. Probably got some protest songs in there, the workers song/chemical workers song. Within an hour or so the playlist will have you asking which side are you on.

Billy Bragg w/ Wilco doing The Diggers. 🥰✊🏼

Process man is maybe the best shanty ever written.

Grass, cash or ass.
