Reminded me of an abridged version of the 'Mariner' - tried to find it - no luck yet. It was only three or four verses long. Can remember a few lines in case it inspires someone to comeup with the rest:


I tweaked a bleeding albatross
And shot him through the head
And when I saw what I had done
I wished that I was dead

What with that bird about me neck
And spirits in the water
I knew that thing that I had done
I really hadn't oughta

I ate my humble, wouldn't you

and so on...
