I was riding on the Mayflower When I thought I spied some land Start again Wait a minute now man Okay, take 2
I was riding on the Mayflower When I thought I spied some land I yelled for Captain Arab, I have you understand Who came a-running to the deck Said, "Boys, forget the whale Where goin' over yonder, cut the engines, change the sails" "Haul on the bowline", we sang that melody Like all tough sailors do When they are far away at sea
"I think I'll call it America" I said as we hit land I took a deep breath I fell down, I could not stand Captain Arab, he started writing up some deeds He said, "Let's set up a fort And start buyin' the place with beads" Just then this cop comes down the street Crazy as a loon He throws us all in jail, for carryin' harpoons
Ah, me I busted out, don't even ask me how I went to get some help I walked by a Guernsey cow Who directed me down, to the Bowery slums Where people carried signs around, sayin', "Ban the bums" I jumped right into line, sayin' "I hope that I'm not late" When I realized I hadn't eaten for five days straight
I went into a restaurant lookin' for the cook I told them I was the editor Of a famous etiquette book The waitress, he was handsome He wore a powder-blue cape I ordered some suzette I said, "Could you please make that crepe" Just then the whole kitchen, exploded from boilin' fat Food was flyin' everywhere, I left without my hat
Now, I didn't mean to be nosy But I went into a bank To get some bail for Arab And all the boys back in the tank They asked me for some collateral And I pulled down my pants They threw me in the alley When up comes this girl from France Who invited me to her house I went, but she had a friend Who knocked me out and robbed my boots And I was on the street again
Well, I rapped upon a house With the U.S. flag upon display I said, "Could you help me out? I got some friends down the way" The man says, "Get out of here I'll tear you limb from limb" I said, "You know, they refused Jesus, too" He said, "You're not Him" "Get out of here before I break your bones I ain't your pop" I decided to have him arrested And I went looking for a cop
I ran right outside, I hopped inside a cab I went out the other door, this Englishman said, "Fab" As he saw me leap a hot dog stand And a chariot that stood Parked across from a building advertising brotherhood I ran right through the front door Like a hobo sailor does But it was just a funeral parlor And the man asked me who I was
I repeated that my friends were all in jail With a sigh He gave me his card, he said "Call me if they die" I shook his hand and said, "Goodbye" Ran out to the street When a bowling ball came down the road And knocked me off my feet A pay phone was ringing And it just about blew my mind When I picked it up and said, "Hello" This foot came through the line
Well, by this time I was fed up At tryin' to make a stab At bringin' back any help For my friends and Captain Arab I decided to flip a coin Like either heads or tails Would let me know, if I should go Back to ship or back to jail So I, hocked my sailor suit And I got a coin to flip It came up tails, it rhymed with sails So I made it back to the ship
Well, I got back And took the parkin' ticket off the mast I was ripping it to shreds When this Coast Guard boat went past They asked me my name, and I said, "Captain Kidd" They believed, me but they wanted to know What exactly that I did I said, for the Pope, of Eruke I was employed They let me go right away, they were very paranoid
Well, the last I heard of Arab He was, stuck on a whale That was married to the deputy, sheriff of the jail But the funniest thing was When I was leavin' the bay I saw three ships a-sailin' They were all heading my way I asked the captain what his name was And how come he didn't drive a truck He said his name was Columbus I just said, "Good luck"

A tip for anyone who is fed up with those ads, just download Brave as an extra browser (or use it as your main if you prefer) and switch to it when you need to go on Youtube. I haven't watched a Youtube ad in 5 years.
Seems to be all of our current top 500 players except Marni?
Marni (on 126 points) is losing 29 points in June-August and has currentlly scored 4. Top 10 will probably be 200+ points so it is hard to see her picking up 90+ points by August especially if she's in qualies for big events where top 200 players will be entered. Similar for Matilda, Jasmine, Talia, Ranah, Emma et al.
My own view is that Katy D is the best chance of a surprise if she can stay fit. She has a lot to do (with 67 points but has 9 this week) and doesn't drop any during June-August.
With so many injured or recovering, for all the list, staying fit may be the deciding factor.
