They can take it
Being tough nuts to crack
Never a worry one bit
Sense of humor they never lack

Take it within their strides
Other sailors see it too?
Yes, and they stamp it with pride
Not a dull moment to view

Tell it to the Marines!
They size it up with care
Only those who let out screams
Thinking X-men will not dare!
