THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.
"HA! HA! HA! HA! THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS! WHERE`S MY FLUTE?"
WIND IS BLOWING ON THE WATER SO BLUE,
THE SEAGULLS ARE CALLING AND THE SUN SHINES THROUGH.
THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO GO ON A BOAT RIDE.
I WANT TO SAIL AWAY TO FAR AWAY LANDS
WHERE THE SUN SHINES DOWN ON GOLDEN SANDS.
OH MY, BUT ISN`T IT GRAND TO GO ON A BOAT RIDE?
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.
OH, I HOPE FOR A LIFE ON THE OCEAN WAVES,
EVEN IF I HAVE TO STOLE AWAY.
I KNOW WHAT I WILL DO TODAY,
I WILL GO ON A BOAT RIDE. (toot! toot!)
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.

THE NEXT MORNING, THE JOLLIES TOOK SCOUSE FOR A WALK.
"OH, ISN`T HE CUTE? I JUST LOVE THE CLAWS!"
"THANK YOU, MAM."
"IT`S REALLY TRUE, HE SPEAKS!"
"I DIDN`T KNOW HE WAS AMERICAN."
"A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD!"
THE CAPTAIN OF THE Q.E.2.:
"SPLICE ME WHISKERS! A TALKING MOUSE!"
"HE SINGS TOO, CAPTAIN."
"AMAZING! WHY DON`T WE ASK SCOUSE TO DO A NUMBER AT THE SHIP`S CONCERT?"
"IS THAT YOUR CAT, CAPTAIN?"
"THAT`S THE SHIP`S CAT. HIS NAME IS GEOFFREY."
"I KNOW, WE`VE BEEN TALKING."
"TALKING?"
"IN ANIMO, EH.. ANIMAL LANGUAGE. I`D LIKE TO ASK HIM TO THIS CONCERT."
"YES."
THE SHIP`S CONCERT AND THE JOLLIES I FULL SWING.
