[00:09.368]"Tell me quick" said Old McFee
[00:14.511]"What's this all have to do with me?"
[00:17.680]"I've spent all my time at sea a loner."
[00:25.858]"Is there something else I should know?"
[00:29.847]"Something hidden down below the level of your conversation?"
[00:39.295]Well he turned away before the answer
[00:47.542]Though I yelled aloud he refused to hear
[00:55.967]It became to clear
[01:03.753]So it went as we put out
[01:09.342]I was left in constant doubt
[01:14.753]Everything I asked about seemed private
[01:20.323]The captain strolled the bridge one night
[01:23.425]I stopped him in the evening light
[01:27.414]To ask him would it be all right to join him
[01:36.133]But he stood there like some idol
[01:42.965]And he listened like some temple
[01:49.498]And then he turned away
[01:59.210]All along the fateful coast
[02:02.603]We moved silent like a ghost
[02:06.547]The timeless sea of tireless host possessed us
[02:14.588]The wind came building from the cold northwest
[02:18.520]And soon the waves began to crest
[02:21.273]Crashing cross the forward deck
[02:25.437]All hands lost
[02:29.094]I alone survived the sinking
[02:36.852]I alone possessed the tools
[02:43.795]On that ship of fools
