Ah those sea shanties:

*In the town where I was born*
*Lived a man who sailed the sea*
*And he told us of his life*
*In the land …*

[ok, cancel that!!! ]

*So we sailed on to the sun*
*Until we found the sea of green*
*And we lived beneath the waves*
*In our yellow …*

[Stop it!! Nothing to sea here!!!]

*We all live in a yellow submarine*
*Yellow submarine, yellow submarine*
*We all live in a yellow submarine*
*Yellow submarine, yellow submarine*

[Security !!!!]

It happens when you start the small quick special military operation.

Yeah, doing a parade on the ocean floor would be dangerous.
