Lyrics : Roll On (Whalesong Interlude III)
(spoken)
They all died. Fedallah first. Ahab second. Starbuck. Stubb. Flask. Tashtego. Daggoo. Pip. The blacksmith, Perth. The carpenter, whose name we never learn. And Queequeg-- my dear Queequeg died too. The last thing I remember was Tashtego and Daggoo, on the mast-head, sinking
Here, help me with this. The ship's flag came off
Hey, watch out for that sky-hawk!
I see him!
Damn! I thought you were gonna whack that bird
What? And drag the bird of heaven down with the ship?
Yeah
No. We can change some things. Little things
Still gonna die though
Everything dies
More sperm whales. Moby d**k's children
Do you have any kids, Tash?
No. I never did
Yeah. Me neither. What are they singing?
Sperm whales don't sing-- they click. Each one on a different beat, but they come together. They intersect to make up a whole
Like West African polyrhythms. They click
(sung)
The ship is not sinking
The ship is already sunk
The ship is not sinking
The ship is already sunk
The ship is not sinking
The ship is already sunk
The ship is not sinking
The ship is already sunk (repeated)
The great shroud of the sea rolls on
As it rolled five thousand years ago (repeated)
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on (repeated)
Bye bye little fish
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye little fish
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye
The great shroud of the sea rolls on
As it rolled five thousand years ago
Bye bye little fish
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye bye (repeated)
Come hither, broken hearted
Here is another life
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
The great shroud of the sea rolls on
As it rolled five thousand years ago
