Lyrics
My father once performed an appendectomy at sea
The patient was quite grateful for his medical degree
The surgery was numbered a success
An untried scalpel hand had met the test
The appendix was discarded for the whale
Retrieved it made a bloody mess
The ship sailed on and left the organ bobbing on the brine
Sharks they gathered quickly didn't stop to form a line
The water there went white and then was still
No sign of life in the ensuing chill
The evidence suggested that the fish
The roars had swallowed down their fill
A sailor touched his stitches and began to reminisce
He sang a little song of loss it went something like this
Appendix gone
Into the dawn
I won't be long
Appendix gone
