This song is awesome when you listen to it without knowing the lyrics.
Then you realize it's about a man that is tortured by a rat that is controlled by Satan and the song is even better.

I was granted the privilege of hearing this track on the program a "very punk xmas" by my local "alternative" station. it was the WORST Christmas I ever had but near the end I heard this song for the first and only time (on the radio!) Since then me and my remaining friends crank this masterpiece every single time we get rowdy. This is the GREATEST party song there is!

You can't hate a song with bagpipes in it!

I feel it. Deep inside my bones the spirits of my ancestors call to me in one voice. One legendary phrase. Said as one voice. “ ‘mon then!!!”

Chip worked as a boatwright as his father and his gran
A-working in a boatyard building on the River Thames
One day Chip was hard at work, the Devil appeared from Hell
He had a roll of copper and a bucket full of nails
The Devil said unto Chip "Take these nails and copper roll
But you also have to take this rat, and I will take your soul!"
Chip despised the rat, and the rat squealed and hissed
But the bucket of nails and copper were too much to resist

Chip went straight to work, he'd get rid of the rat
And there would not be a problem with his death after the fact
But the devil rat wouldn't die, no matter how hard he tried
The rat attacked the boatwright and he bit him in the eye
It seemed as if the river rats fell under Satan's spell
They followed Chip around and made his life a living hell
He slowly lost his mind, he lost his family
He lost his job and had to join the King's navy

A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I will get you, Chip
A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I'm gonna get you

The rats chased Chip up the gangplank of the ship
And they bit him and they tortured him until he finally flipped
He sniveled to the captain to turn around his rig
The captain spied his madness, and they chucked him in the brig
The devil rat had his man, he knew just what to do
He'd command the rats, and through the planks they'd chew
The water rushed in, and the ship went down
She was smashed upon the rocks on which the rats danced around

A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I will get you, Chip
A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I will get you, Chip

A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I will get you, Chip
A lemon grows a pip, a yard will build a ship
As Satan is my master, I got you, Chip

I remember getting out of drug rehab in North Berkeley, CA & seeing a Us Bombs, Real McKenzie's, NOFX, & Rancid show at Slims SFC the next day in early 2002. Grand evening indeed. One of the best shows I have seen. Thank you for putting this up. Cheers!!(A)
