Синапсы в деле, нейроны в доле, война-то, в общем, всегда война...
Самая известная (имхо) песня шанти, относящаяся к маршевым.
Песня строится по следующей схеме:
Строка куплета
Строка куплета
Строка куплета
Erlay in the morning!
Weigh heigh, and up she rises!
Weigh heigh, and up she rises!
Weigh heigh, and up she rises!
Erlay in the morning!
В первом куплете строка всегда "What shall we do with a drunken sailor?", в последнем - "That's what we do with a drunken sailor!". В куплетах посередине строки предлагают способы измывательства над несчастным морячком. В частности, "классические куплеты":
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Put him in the long boat till he’s sober
Put him in the scuppers with a hawse pipe on him
Put him in bed with the captain’s daughter
Поскольку песня народная, то она подобно Мории обросла кучей фанфиков народных куплетов и вариаций:
Beat him with a cat 'til his back is bleedin' мой любимый 
Put him in the bilge and make him drink it
Truss him up with a runnin' bowline.
Give 'im a dose of salt and water.
Stick on 'is back a mustard plaster.
Send him up the crow’s nest till he falls down,
Tie him to the taffrail when she’s yardarm under,
Soak 'im in oil 'til he sprouts a flipper.
Put him in the guard room 'til he’s sober.
That’s what we’ll do with the drunken sailor.
Shave his balls with a rusty razor.
Make him the skipper of an Exxon tanker.
Give 'im the hair of the dog that bit him.
