Graeme:
[the trio finds a song about the Jollyrock Lighthouse in a sea shanty compilation and eagerly start to sing it] Oh the winds they do blow, and the seas they do roar...

Tim, Graeme, Bill:
[singing] ... when you're stuck on a lighthouse, ten miles from the shore. But you've heard of the Jollyrock, of that I am sure. Go there and your loved ones, will see you no more.

Tim, Graeme, Bill:
[singing, suddenly worried] Oh, don't go to the Jollyrock, whatever you do. I wouldn't go near it if I was you.

Graeme:
[singing] So away from the Jollyrock I advise you to race.

Tim:
It's utterly appalling... [confused] and not at all nace?

Bill:
[singing, worried] For nasty things happen there, it's such a disgrace...

Tim, Graeme, Bill:
[singing, now really worried] 'Cause people get killed there all over the place! OH, don't go to the Jollyrock, whatever you do. I wouldn't go near it, if I was you.

Tim:
[completely hysterical] Oh, the next verse is censored because it's too horrible even to talk about! [runs out] I don't feel well!

Bill:
[singing, halfheartedly] Well your blood will run cold, and your heart fill with dread.

Graeme:
[singing, halfheartedly] For the Jollyrock is plagued with the souls of the dead!

Bill:
[singing] If you stay there one night... [terrified] you'll go clean off your head!

Graeme, Bill:
[singing, weakly] And in no time at all you will probably catch mumps...

[Double-check the line]

Graeme, Bill:
... Mumps?

Tim:
That doesn't even rhyme!
