Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs and Chanteys is a compilation album of sea shanties performed by a wide array of artists, ranging from Sting to Bryan Ferry, representing a variety of genres. The artists cover a large number of diverse songs of the sea, at times adding elements traditionally attributed to other types of music. The majority of the pop performers had not been known to be familiar with the sea shanty as a separate genre. The Rcord was produces by: Hal Wilner, Gore Verbinski, Johnny Depp & Brett Gurewitz.

"Good Ship Venus," also known as "Friggin' in the Riggin" , is a bawdy drinking song devised to shock with ever increasingly lewd and debauched sexual descriptions of the eponymous ship's loose moralled crew. The tune usually used (especially for the chorus) is "In and Out the Windows".

Recorded by The Sex Pistols, Anthrax.

It is possible that this song was inspired by an actual event, where a female convict (Charlotte Badger), sailing on the colonial brigantine Venus, convinced members of the crew to commandeer the vessel, sailing from Port Dalrymple in Van Diemens Land (now Tasmania) in 1806.

Despite various reports, the ultimate fate of the Venus is unknown. This may have led to speculation by those left behind, with fantasies leading to the creation of this drinking song. Interestingly, one of the verses also refers to a 'Charlotte'.

"The captain's lovely daughter / Liked swimming in the water / Delighted squeals came when some eels / Found her sexual quarters"

I've listened to quite few versions of this song, but I still prefer The Sex Pistols version. It has real energy, feels like vigorous wanking, and utterly filthy.

On the Good Ship Venus, by Christ you should have seen us, the figurehead was a whore in bed sucking a dead man's penis. The captains name was lugger, by Christ he was a bugger, He wasn't fit to shovel shit, from one ship to another.The 2nd mate was andy, By christ he had it dandy till the crushed his cock on a jagged rock for cumming in the brandy. The first mates name was Morgan, by God he was a gorgon, From half past eight he played till late upon the Captains OrganThe captains wife was Mable, and by god was she able, to give the crew their daily screw upon the galley table.The captain's daughter Charlotte was born and bred a harlot, her thighs at night were lily white by morning they were scarlet.The cabin boy was Kipper, by Christ he was a nipper, he stuffed his ass with broken glass and circumcised the skipper.The captain's lovely daughter, went swimming in the water, delighted squeels came when some eels found her sexual quarters.The cooks name was Freeman, and he was a dirty demon, and he fed the crew on Menstrual stew and Hymens fried in SemenAnd the ships dog was called rover, and we turned the poor thing over, and round and round that faithful hound from Teneriff to Dover. When we reached our station through skillful navigation, the ship got sunk in a wave of spunk from too much fornicationOn the Good ship Venus, by christ you should of seen us, the figure head was a whore in bed sucking a dead man's penis.

As far as Loudon Wainwright songs are concerned, I'd have to go with "I Wish I was a Lesbian" over this.

I, uh, I just realized I met Loudon when I was a kid. I was at some dopey music camp when, as it was explained to us, "the guy that wrote the Dead Skunk song" was there, and he taught us a few chords. Some ten years later, tonight, I've pieced this together. And yet no one understands why I drink.

Fond memories of 20 years in the OZ Navy. But it was the Brits who knew all the words to this 'ditty' and by Christ they could sing them LOUDLY :)
