Wellerman

Wellerman, titled Wellerman (Sea Devils Version), was a song, often called a sea shanty, made by Nathan Evans on 13 April 2022 as a promotional piece for the Easter Special Legend of the Sea Devils, released 4 days later on 17 April 2022.
Its lyrics are:
:There once was a ship, I’ll tell you this
:The name of the ship was the TARDIS
:When trouble blew up, they didn’t get down
:Oh blow you bully boys blow
:Soon may the Doctor come
:To bring us danger, adventure then some
:One day when the saving is done
:She’ll take her leave and go
:So, there is a secret we can’t keep
:They’re coming back: the devils of the deep
:Where have they been? Maybe asleep
:Very soon you will know
:Soon may the Doctor come
:To bring us danger, adventure then some
:One day when the saving is done
:She’ll take her leave and go
:Join the Sea Devils and a pirate crew
:They’re causing trouble like in ‘72
:What on earth will the Doctor do?
:Very soon you will know
:Soon may the Doctor come
:To bring us danger, adventure then some
:One day when the saving is done
:She’ll take her leave and go
== Behind the scenes ==
* "Wellerman (Sea Devils Version)" is a Doctor Who cover remix of Evans' original Wellerman which went viral on TikTok in early 2021, leading to a "social media craze" around songs erroneously considered sea shanties. This version is itself a cover version of the Wellerman song that originated in New Zealand around 1860 and 1870.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellerman
