lyrics

Chapter 127: The Deck

Carpenter:
Sha na na na na!
No need to sing, the tools are ringing in song!
Sha na na na na!
But digging a grave, you bring the ditty along . . .
Still, indifferently, I cradle death, undone.

Sha na na na na!
I do as I do, you say to do it, it's done!
Sha na na na na!
There on the way, I needs be having some fun!
And in courting laughter, bathe in tempers won.

Ahab:
A sounding board in the house of the dead --
Echoes untoward!
Hold now, opine -- every vector a straight line
Paired with this force!
