Musical: Titanic
Song: The Blame

 
ISMAY
Surly something can be done to help us...

ANDREWS
Thousands on board
Trusting and warm
Roused from their sleep
Sent up above
Unsinkable ship
What she now?
What is she now?

ISMAY
Possibly she won't go down
Possibly she'll stay afloat
Possibly all this could come to an end
On a positive note...

ANDREWS
Not unless the ship could fly
Not unless we all sprout wings!
Honestly, sir, I have built her from scratch
And I know certain things!

ISMAY
If you know so much
Why didn't you know to prevent this!
What's to become of us all,
Now that providence sent this!
This is your work, Mr. Andrews!
You have done us in!
Where's her leakproof bulkheads?
Where's her double skin?
That's your job!
If someone must take the blame
It is you!
You!...

CAPT. SMITH
Innocent folk
Held in our care
Living their lives
Dreaming their dreams
Dreaming their dreams...

ISMAY
Possible a ship will come
Possibly we'll all be saved...

ANDREWS
Dammit, sir, listen!
We're hemorrhaging fast!
It's our hull that's been staved!

ISMAY
Couldn't you design it right?
Whoever heard of steel that rips?

ANDREWS
Ismay, I'm just in the business of building
It's God who sinks ships!...

ISMAY
There stands the Captain
Who sailed us straight into disaster!

ANDREWS
Oh, now it's the Captain's turn!
Pray, who urged him to go faster?...

Well, then, thank you, Mr. Ismay
For your contribution!
Now please pray for some
Miraculous solution!
Your timing is perfect!
Now help us, please
If you can!

CAPT. SMITH
Who called for speed and to break every record!
Who had to keep all the millionaires happy!

ISMAY
How dare you, Smith!
I will not stand here indicted!
Who ignored warnings of icebergs when sighted?

Who, sir, refused to extend up the bulheads?!

ANDREWS
You, sir! To give the first class
Bigger staterooms!

CAPT. SMITH
And who undermined the postion of Captain?

ISMAY
And who took a course too far north for the
Season?

CAPT. SMITH
And who kept insisting
We land ever sooner?...

ISMAY
And who should have posted ANDREWS
More lookouts in darkness?! And who had to have both
The largest and fastest?...
Who did?!

CAPT. SMITH
Who did it?! Who did it?!

ISMAY
Who did it?! Who did it?!

ALL THREE
Who did it?!
Who did it?!

ANDREWS
Possible the lord will act...

CAPT. SMITH
Possible He will provide...

ALL THREE
And indicate how
Our unthinkable fate
Can be somehow denied
Somehow denied...

ISMAY(To Andrews)
Your work
No one else's...

ANDREWS
My doing
No one else's...

CAPT. SMITH
There's only one Captain
And I was in charge...
This is my ship
No one else's...
