ANDREWS Just a cursory look at the blueprints here Shows the weaknesses that we have missed How the water poured in A three-hundred-foot gash And caused the bow to flood and to list And then it filled to the top Our separate watertight compartments And began to overflow... Because the walls in-between the compartments Are too low! She's only sinking because these bulkheads Stop a deck too low! But here's a thought! Take the line... And extend up the walls to the brink... It's just a small redesing... But when it's done then i know she can't sink! Like this!... Like this!... Like this!... Like this!... The ship will start to plunge beneath the surface The water lapping at our feet Down sinks the bow, up flies the stern To the sky... The panicked people in retreat A thousand strong, they'll climb up Toward the aft deck They'll cling there desperately Like bees to a hive! There they'll hold fast Doomed to the last Lost and abandoned and all still alive A few of them will hang there From the railings As, one by one, they'll drop away! More than two-hundred-fifty feet They will fall And after that, I cannot say I will not say... The rest, in swarms, will overrun the boat deck They'll lose all sense of right and wrong It will be "Eevery man from himself", all right! The weak thrown in with the strong! First class, and third, and second Will mean nothing! And sheer humanity alone will prevail One single class Brute, harsh and crass That's what will come of the world that set sail Autumn... Shall we all meet in the Autumn?... Shall we all meet in the Autumn?... Back to main page: Titanic Lyrics Broadway Titanic Lyrics
