Twas' 4 months before Christmas....what?

Question

Merry Christmas

Twas’ the night before Christmas

And all through the boat

The chance of going home

Seemed quite remote

The crew was all ready

There bags were all packed

The go ahead from the super

Was all that they lacked

Then from the stern

There came such a clatter

I looked out my porthole

To see what was the matter

A crewboat was coming

It’s engine a roar

Carrying supplies for the job

And personnel from shore

All hands were on deck

And with hope they believed

That someone was onboard

So they could be relieved

On came a welder a diver

2 tenders a cook

All others must stay on

You should have seen the look

They knew they were stuck

For the rest of the hitch

How long before I’m off?

You could hear them all *****

And as the boat left

They were all heard to say

I swear that next year

I won’t work Christmas day
