The song made by PUBLIC SERVICE BROADCASTING called LIT UP uses this spoken word to create something very special.

I think that the excuse was that he, an old seadog, met up with a lot of old friends in ships that he served on. Royal Navy hospitality, being what it is, the drinks flowed freely so it was inevitable that he became "three sheets to the wind" Despite all that, its absolutely hillarious.
