lyrics

Erin thought for a minute or two
then swiftly knew just what to do
I'll sail to the seaside in a boat of blue,
on a crest of waves, in my yellow tutu

Hey Erin! They shouted, don't leave us behind,
we're three bears of the boating kind.
We'll bring lunch and lots of cheer,
do a little dance whilst you steer.
we'll do a little dance whilst you steer.

Okay, thought Erin, that sounds like fun,
me plus three sailing in the sun.
When we arrive there'll be no doubt
we'll paddle splash and muck about.

Hey Erin! They shouted, don't leave us behind,
we're three bears of the boating kind.
When we arrive there'll be no doubt
we'll paddle splash and muck about
we'll paddle splash and muck about.

When at last we're homeward bound
feeling sleepy as the sun goes down
Well, we'll get back in time for tea
three weary bears blue boat and me

Inst
Erin thought for a minute or two
then swiftly knew just what to do
I'll sail to the seaside in a boat of blue,
on a crest of waves, in my yellow tutu
