Sergeant of the Company

Adapted
(Sing to "I am the Captain" from HMS Pinafore
SERG	I am the Sergeant of the Company.

ALL	And a right good Sergeant, too! 

SERG 	You're very, very good, 
	And be it understood, 
	I command a right good crew.
		
ALL	We're very, very good, 
	And be it understood, 
	He commands a right good crew.
		 
SERG	Though not related to a Scot;
	I can run, shoot, and snear, 
	And drink a hell of a lot.
	I am never known to quake,
	At the fury of a volley,
	And I'm never, never drunk at Dunnings!
		
ALL	What, never?

SERG	No, never! 

ALL	What, never? 

SERG	Hardly ever!

ALL	He's hardly ever drunk at Dunnings! 
	Then give three cheers, 
	and one cheer more, 
	For the hardy Sergeant of the Company!
	Give three cheers, and one cheer more,
	For the Sergeant of the Company!
