Oh, we'd love to learn to sail

to the tune of 'Okey Cokey'
Chorus:
Oh, we'd love to learn to sail,
Oh, we'd love to learn to sail,
Oh, we'd love to learn to sail,
Knees bend, back wrench, bail, bail, bail.

You eat your breakfast up,
You hold your breakfast down,
Up, down, up, down, your face begins to frown.
Your tummy starts to rumble and you have to get out,
And that's what it's all about.

You hit the left bank first,
you hit the right bank next.
Left, right, left, right, it's not a pretty sight.
You run into a mudbank with a mighty clout,
And that's what it's all about.

You throw your hands right up,
You pull the halyards down.
Up, down, up, down, you're looking quite a clown,
And when you get the sails up they are upside down,
And that's what it's all about.

You wave your quantpole left,
You wave your quantpole right,
Left, right, left, right, you give the bilge a fright.
You get it in the water and you push with all your might,
And that's what it's all about.

You pull the bilge pump up,
You push the bilge pump down,
Up, down, up, down, the water's kind of brown,
The pump breaks down and you begin to drown,
And that's what it's all about.
