lirik lagu adrian d. holmes - when frederic was a little lad
when frederic was a little lad
he proved so brave and daring
his father thought he’d ‘prentice him
to some career seafaring
i was, alas! his nurserymaid
and so it fell to my lot
to take and bind the promising boy
apprentice to a pilot
a life not bad for a hardy lad
though surely not a high lot
though i’m a nurse, you might do worse
than make your boy a pilot
i was a stupid nurserymaid
on breakers always steering
and i did not catch the word aright
through being hard of hearing;
mistaking my instructions
which within my brain did gyrate
i took and bound this promising boy
apprentice to a pirate
a sad mistake it was to make
and doom him to a vile lot
i bound him to a pirate? you!
instead of to a pilot
i soon found out, beyond all doubt
the scope of this disaster
but i hadn’t the face to return to my place
and break it to my master
a nurserymaid is not afraid
of what you people call work
so i made up my mind to go as a kind
of piratical maid-of-all-work
and that is how you find me now
a member of this shy lot
which you wouldn’t have found, had he been bound
apprentice to a pilot
