A/N: I love the fact that Gordon sailed the seven seas in a yellow submarine two years before The Beatles came up with their song. Let's face it, John and Paul were probably Thunderbirds fans - and EVERYONE loves Gordon, I don't care what they say!
For my Gordon Girls, you know who you are. My apologies for keeping Gordon fully clothed in this one. Maybe next time.
Disclaimer: I do not own Thunderbirds. Gerry Anderson does. I'm still awaiting a response to my letter asking for at least a small share in Gordon.
I do not own the song Yellow Submarine either, it was written by my fellow Scousers John Lennon and Paul McCartney and sung beautifully by Mr Richard Starkey.
I would also like to thank Teobi in advance for the use of the word 'lollygagging' (she may not have coined it but she certainly reinvented it! If you haven't already, read her brilliant and *slightly* naughty M-Rated fic, Shore Leave). I know I'm not using it with permission, exactly, but I think you'll approve of the usage... I hope!
Yellow Submarine
On the island where I live
There's a man who builds machines
And he built my brothers' 'Birds
But for me, a submarine
So we housed my little sub
Safe in Virgil's 'Bird of green
And I sometimes rescue folks
In my yellow submarine
I save lives in my yellow submarine
But I have to say - it's not all work, no play
I see mermaids at the bottom of the sea
Between you and me, they're friendly as can be!
All the guys think it's bad luck
Sailing way down there, so deep in muck
But they know she's tough as fu...what?!
Life's just fine in my yellow submarine
But sometimes it gets tough, the ocean can be rough
I'm in charge in my yellow submarine
A skipper's life at sea - responsibility!
"ETA at danger zone fifteen minutes,"
"Make it ten!"
"Full speed ahead - FAB, Scott!"
"Prepare for launch, about to drop the pod."
"Relax, will ya?! Here I go again!"
To the world, our life's so cool
Lollygagging there around the pool
(Lollygagging there around the pool)
But some days I long to be
(But some days he longs to be)
In my yellow submarine
(In his yellow submarine, aha!)
I'm so proud of my yellow submarine
She speeds right through the sea, as shiny as can be
Rescues are fun in my yellow submarine
Treasures in the deep, a danger for a geek!
Someday I'll live in my yellow submarine
I guess it will save time when lives are on the line
I'll bet you'd all love my yellow submarine
Well, that was all the song - I hope you sang along!
THE END
