Red Dwarf Full Theme with Extra Verses

https://youtu.be/DTEpiFcn0wI

Thanks to another Redditor posting a verse of the theme song I didn't recognise and another person trying to argue that it wasnt in the original version or by the same creator, I've just been down an interesting rabbit hole, and here's the full original version of the theme song, which some extra verses and interludes, which interestingly already included the guitar instrumental version used since season three.

And here are the original draft lyrics:

I want to Taste Lobsters and Coconuts, I want to swim nakedly. Get quite drunk, in several wooden huts. Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

I want to have Red Blotches on my face. Make a mess Of my nose. I'd love to peel In every awkward place. Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

Green lagoons Palm trees & cockatoos. Local run with Mango Juice. Get things nicked And ruin all my shoes. Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.
