Even as ship was sinking
Having hit Titanic iceberg
Still silly ship captain me could laugh
At go down with it self-tragedy
Now resting (rusting)
On Atlantic ocean bottom
Can't laugh without air to breathe
No humour left in these old oxidized bones
Having missed the lighthouse
No sea shells to share
No crashing waves
Dead eyes stare out window
Laid bare barren wastes
Blair station
Near where used to live
Pretending we were still a family

Even as ship was sinking
Having hit Titanic iceberg
Still silly ship captain me could laugh
At go down with it self-tragedy
Now resting (rusting)
On Atlantic ocean bottom
Can't laugh without air to breathe
No humour left in these old oxidized bones
Having missed the lighthouse
No sea shells to share
No crashing waves
Dead eyes stare out window
Laid bare barren wastes
Blair station
Near where used to live
Pretending we were still a family
