Christopher's Song
==================
Lyrics by Alex Raichev

---------------------------------------- Chris 1
Your heart beats quicker than mine,
And jumps from time to time,
In a most peculiar way.
Maybe see a doctor.
Maybe do it today.
On the ground?
No, you can't do it from the ground,
Clutching your chest,
Struggling to make a sound.

---------------------------------------- Captain's speech
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain again.
I'm afraid the storm has forced us into uncharted rocks, and we've run aground.
Please make your way immediately to the life boats for an emergency evacuation.

---------------------------------------- Chris 2
My ma packed me in a can.
Said, "Chris, i'll meet you on land,"
Twentytwo days ago.
Smells of piss in here. I don't know.

---------------------------------------- Crying solo
Wo...

---------------------------------------- Calming
Hush now, child, dive down deep,
Deep within the source of all peace.

---------------------------------------- Boaties land
Land ho!
Sweet merciful Christ on a cracker, there's hope.
I just can't wait to get out of this boat.
I kiss the ground, mwa, mwa. I kiss it.
Look, coconuts!
Ah finally, something to eat besides sardines.
And people!
Ho ho, we're not alone. Hello, people! Thank you, thank you.
Ah it's been such a journey. It's tragic really.
We were on this boat and enjoying ourselves---
Hey, what are you doing with those spears?
Oi, put down those spears!
Oh my god, they're killing us with their spears! Etc.
We're dying! We're dying! Ah!

Come to find your family
Hello ello ello!
That you've left so long ago
Bury you with your people
Hello ello ello!
That you've just now come to know
Wo o o o o...
