Part Three: Ship's A Going Down
"Why not live?" the catbird shrilled
"And give a guy a chance
For soon, the moon will sing a tune and I'll be left to dance"
Well, strangers have left on longer trains before
Yes, shake and shout and cause a spout to be a mockery
Exist inside a lemon drop and cause no word to be
If after all this oleo, a speck of dust exists
We'll set aside a common tide 'twixt friend and who he's kissed
"He thought the end was overdue, but daybroke him instead
And consequently what he read was never what he said
And don't you never," said the ever Enigmatic Foe
"Lose your cool, or after school
They'll find me home in bed"
What hoe you rake, you fake a taking and a mating moo
Confuse to lose and quake to break are simple rules to you
Why send a curly head to bed and know her secrets too?
Glue it down you dripping clown, and be not busy, too
If a needy, if a seedy lets him come on through
Keys are not thrust open spores and neither is a broken store
There are clothes that haven't been worn
Feet that haven't been shorn
There's, there's causes that haven't been given a principle, need I say more?
The soft spoken edge was a close fit
With the warped open cracks so many
The quick drain brained the main
And the ship's a'goin' down, me mates
The ship's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me boys
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
The quick brain drained the main
And the ship's she's a'goin' down, me boys
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me mate
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
The quick brain drained the main
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me boys
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me mates
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
The quick brain drained the main
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me boys
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down, me mates
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, stop
The brain drained the main
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
The ship's she's a'goin' down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
