After We Shot The Grizzly
After we shot the grizzlyAfter the airship crashedAfter we lost the compassAfter the radio went deadWe shot and ate the horsesWe marched through deadly swampsInside a limestone caveI found a human skullYes Mary, I found a human skullThe captain caught a feverWe tied him to a treeWe stared into the fireAnd tried not to hear his screamsI killed a tiny antelopeNot scared by my approachWe turned it over dying flamesAs we huddled in the glowYes Mary, we huddled in the glowWe built a raft from skin and bonesOnly five could safely floatThe others stood upon the shoreThe screamed and threw sharp stonesYes Mary, they threw the sharpest stonesSongtexteBut how the sea did spin usHow the waves did roarThe captain jumped into the stormThen we were but fourOne by one, we chose our straws'Til only I remainedBut Mary, you are with me nowAll around me in the wavesYes Mary, you are in the waves
