The Lyrics

I heard somewhere that the lyrics from Gilligan's Island go with Teen Spirit. Other than that, how the heck did I think this one up?
Just sit right back and hear a tale
Hear a tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port
This port aboard this tiny ship

Minnow Minnow Minnow Minnow
Minnow Minnow Minnow Minnow
Minnow Minnow Minnow Minnow
Minnow Minnow Minnow

Well, the weather, it was raining!!
And the Minnow, it was tossed now!!
Oh yeah if not for the courage!!
Yeah, the Monnow would be missing!!

S.S. Minnow!!
No more dinner!!
Stupid weather!!
Mother nature!!

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

Mate's a mighty sailin' man
And the skipper brave and sure
Five passengers set sail that day
Yeah, yeah, for a three-hour tour

Three-hour tour, three-hour tour
Three-hour tour, three-hour tour
Three-hour tour, three-hour tour
Three-hour tour, Minnow

Well, the weather, it was raining!!
And the Minnow, it was tossed now!!
Oh yeah if not for the courage!!
Yeah, the Monnow would be missing!!

S.S. Minnow!!
No more dinner!!
Stupid weather!!
Mother nature!!

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

That's the tale of our castaways
Oh yeah, they're here for a long, long time
And they will have to make the best of things
Oh yeah, it is an uphill climb

An uphill climb, an uphill climb
An uphill climb, an uphill climb
An uphill climb, an uphill climb
An uphill climb, Minnow

The ship's aground on the shore of!!
This uncharted desert isle!!
With Gilligan, and the Skipper!!
Mr. Howell, Mrs. Howell!!

The star and!!
The Professor!!
And Mary-Ann!!
Gill'gan's Island!!

Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!
Desert Isle!!

The last part is great. I can imagine Cobain realizing he's stuck on the island forever without any drugs and wailing, "Desert Isle! Desert Isle! Desert Isle!"
