Accountancy Shanty

Full speed ahead, Mr Cohen!

Up, up, up your premium Up, up, up your premium

Scribble away!

Up, up, up your premium

And balance the books

Up, up, up your premium

Scribble away!

Up, up, up your premium

But manage the books

Up, up, up

It’s fun to charter an accountant
And sail the wide accountancy,
To find, explore the funds offshore
And skirt the shoals of bankruptcy!

It can be manly in insurance
We’ll up your premium semi-annually
It’s all tax deductible
We’re fairly incorruptible,
We’re sailing on the wide accountancy!

Oh, this is fun, Mr Cohen!

Sail away!

Up, up, up
LEAD
Fetch me another exotic salute
To port! Bring her port to shell out!
And the medium guys shell out to port!
Balance the books!
Bring me another small shellfish, Mr Cohen
