You may be excused, but why is your stomach in knots? And are the knots easily untied, wet or dry, and with one hand, even unseen as when under water?
It's because me mother was a mermaid, me father was King Neptune.
I was born on the crest of a wave and rocked in the cradle of the deep.
Seaweed and barnacles is me clothes.
The hair on me head is hemp, every tooth in me head is a marlinspike (which I use to untie knots), every bone in me body is a spar, and when I spits, I spits tar.
That's why matey!
I'm hard I am I is I arggggh!
