One day whilst alongside in Malta,and understood to be heading home for leave the Prime Minister Mr Harold Wilson decided he would continue talks with Mr Smith of Rhodesia,using our ship as his office, number ten, but no one infomed us, just the buzz going around the harbour by the locals, We set sail heading Home or so we thought, but El Conny kept us informed having penned this Calypso before the Dog Watch
Well I am sad to say Fearless is sailing away Will not be back for many a day Instead of Northward bound we are turning around Going to meet Harold Wilson in Lagos town CHORUS Oggie, Oggie, Oggie.We will never get home Oggie, Oggie, Oggie.On the sea's we will roam The Government says we should never drip But please Haslemere get me off of this ship Oh Harold Wilson It has been heard to say Is putting in for seperation pay Three times in two years on ships of the line So now he is shouting Roll on my time CHORUS Oh Its Splicers for 'G' members Limers for UA's Thats all we get from the Wilson stays He's using this ship like a Wilson's den And even on the side is painted number ten CHORUS From the Daghjsa man we got the buzz That we were not sailing back to Guzz Confirmed by the bbc radio men Were being used for the conference talks again CHORUS
Written by El Conny, Sung by El Conny and the Railway Hotel Choral Society
