Narrator - It Was Not
Intro
Verse 1
Well, the faucet in me galley had a slow an' steady drip,
so I watched one little video an' I read a Reddit tip.
'Tis a fifteen-minute job, says I.
An' I've shut the water off, says I.
Chorus
Arr, it's gonna be easy!
Just a fifteen-minute job!
So heave away, me hearties, with a wrench an' a prayer,
an' I'll be done by noon, says I!
Way, hey, an' the water's risin'! (Hey!)
Way, hey, an' the water's risin'! (Hey!)
Verse 2
Then the nut came off the fittin' with a pop an' then a roar,
an' the water hit the ceilin' an' came down across the floor.
It'll stop in just a second, says I.
An' the neighbors down below be out o' town, says I.
Chorus
Arr, it's gonna be easy!
Just a fifteen-minute job!
So heave away, me hearties, with a wrench an' a prayer,
an' I'll be done by noon, says I!
Way, hey, an' the water's risin'! (Hey!)
Way, hey, an' the water's risin'! (Hey!)
Verse 3
So I posted to the internet, all drippin', with a pic:
"Quick question, how bad is this? Please answer, an' be quick!"
An' the top reply said "Rookie," an' the next one just said "Lol,"
an' the third one asked, "But is the cat okay?" an' that was all.
Somebody's gonna help me now, says I.
Break
Bridge
But way down at the bottom, with a single lonely vote,
was an old retired plumber who had seen it all, an' wrote,
"Kid, breathe. Get a bucket. Now go find the main."
An' he stayed up typin' with me till the sun came up again.
I thought the internet was cruel, says I.
Final Chorus
Arr, it's gonna be easy!
But a stranger stayed till mornin'!
Way, hey, an' the sun is risin'! (Hey!)
Way, hey, an' the sun is risin'! (Hey!)
So heave away, me hearties, with a wrench an' a prayer,
an' the faucet's fixed for good, says I!
Outro
Update: the cat be fine!
