THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME
Enjoy an exciting cruise, Destination – McHenry – Aboard the world-class SS Adventure! Forget your troubles, Indulge in the high life, All you need is two dollars And nothing better to do.
Meet Captain KC, Nautical juggernaut, Running on the salty, Malty, Stuff of engines.
McHenry’s best When you travel SS! Waltz off the creaky deck, Observe exotic outdoor cats, And browse the scrawlings Of native artists. The joyful mess That is the SS – Sailing circles, Spinning yarns, Trailing trash That sinks deeper into passenger’s souls Than the overgrown backyard ocean.
God bless The SS, Cheap as hell, Never rests, McHenry luxury To forget The benches And docks Are more like beds Than the one Tucked in Your home.
Because when you have no Money, Mommy, Plans tonight, No way to keep your hopes in sight, But the dim and dangling Christmas lights Around your friends Above their heads That twinkle in the camera lens Flash moments we just can’t remember, People we could never forget, Countless ales, Honest tales, All of us knowing Real family hails From a captain Our parents never met On a ship They never boarded.
