Circus

Songbook

While aspiring writers produce great logs and shanties every year, only a select few make it into the official cruise songbooks. These songs are steeped in history, mystery, and er... there's nothing else rhymes with history, is there? Bother.

This list is by no means complete, but here are just some of the songs you'll be singing/shouting on camp...

  • A Gallant Young Harrier/Mallard/Kestrel
  • Amazing Horn
  • Ballad of the Broads
  • Commodore I wonder
  • Commy come and help us
  • Every summer (All through the night)
  • Gone Is The Skipper
  • Gybe ho
  • Harriers/Mallards/Kestrels Are We
  • I am the very model
  • I cannot tell
  • I closed my eyes
  • I'm a Harrier/Mallard/Kestrel and I'm okay
  • I'm only an innocent skipper
  • If I were the Commodore
  • Is this the real life?
  • Just A Quant At Twilight
