H.M.S. PINAFORE

 

But still I'm called Buttercup -- poor Little Buttercup, Sweet Little Buttercup I!
A many years ago, When I was young and charming, As some of you may know, I practised baby-farming.
Fair moon, to thee I sing, Bright regent of the heavens,
Captain: Ah! Little Buttercup, still on board? That is not quite right, little one

I copied all the letters in a hand so free, That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navee!
My gallant crew, good morning.
