Shirley Temple
Shirley Temple's, "On the Good Ship Lollipop"
Better Lyrics:
On the bad ship
Sewol, flop
T'was a bad trip
For Korean tots
When the ship swayed,
Topside hard to reach
Evac was delayed
Crew made demands,
Teens below scared
Cell phones in hand,
Deep despair,
Cap NOT a star,
Was fleeing the ship, reputation marred
Water filled the hull
Then ship did a roll
Capsizing was to be its fate,
Hundreds killed as such,
Oh- No!
No escape,
Now endless debates
Sewol, flop
T'was a bad trip
For Korean tots
When the ship swayed,
Topside hard to reach
Evac was delayed
Crew made demands,
Teens below scared
Cell phones in hand,
Deep despair,
Cap NOT a star,
Was fleeing the ship, reputation marred
Water filled the hull
Then ship did a roll
Capsizing was to be its fate,
Hundreds killed as such,
Oh- No!
No escape,
Now endless debates
Original Lyrics:
On the good ship
Lollipop
Its a sweet trip
To the candy shop
Where bon-bon's play,
On the sunny beach
Of peppermint bay
Lemonade stands,
Everywhere
Crackerjack bands,
Fill the air,
And there you are,
Happy landings on a chocolate bar.
See the sugar bowl
Do a tootsie roll
In a big bad devils food cake,
If you eat too much,
Oh, oh,
You'll awake,
With a tummy ache.
Lollipop

Happy landings on a chocolate bar.
See the sugar bowl
Do a tootsie roll
In a big bad devils food cake,
If you eat too much,
Oh, oh,
You'll awake,
With a tummy ache.
