[00:00:18] Through whose veneer pokes the word greed

[00:00:27] Each day he become less clear in his mind

[00:00:31] The mission the crew the growing suspicion with the passing of time

[00:00:38] All this talking you boys talk too much

[00:00:44] Now get out of my room

[00:00:48] And stop talking to me about luck

[00:00:52] There is no luck

[00:00:55] I paid all the way did it all my way

[00:01:00] With hard work and pluck

[00:01:02] Well he was busy on the larder working on the lock

[00:01:07] When somebody shouted rock

[00:01:11] Paper shouted another

[00:01:13] What I'm no ppauper sang queeg

[00:01:16] So stop trying to read into me

[00:01:20] There's noting to read nothing to see

[00:01:27] So just you make some haste

[00:01:30] And summon up some speed

[00:01:33] Let's pull into the place

[00:01:36] And be done with the deed

[00:01:38] There's somebody there who must pay

[00:01:42] They chartered this boat

[00:01:45] It sailed on their sayso

[00:01:48] A year to the day into that bay

[00:01:52] Young Uncle staggered up the gangplank to meet them

[00:01:56] Said stay

[00:02:04] Is this the bride ship to the free world yes

[00:02:11] Is this the bride ship to the free world yes

[00:02:20] Yes I'll pay I'll pay

[00:02:30] In his minds eye old queeg opened his presents

[00:02:35] Though the great day had not yet arrived

[00:02:39] She arrived one Hong Kong wise woman the bride

[00:02:46] A handful of ribbons by her side

[00:02:51] He prodded her belly gently

[00:02:55] Opened her mouth and counted closely

[00:03:00] The teeth in her mouth arranged loosely

[00:03:05] One two three four

[00:03:13] Well it's not by teeth that they'll be paying

[00:03:18] Nor by weight or by weighing

[00:03:23] Now what is your name

[00:03:25] The name that I gave you

[00:03:27] It's freedom she spat back

[00:03:29] And I fought hard for this place

[00:03:33] I want to be paid well for my time

[00:03:36] I want I want I want what's mine

[00:03:38] Soon soon says queeg to himself

[00:03:43] Then turned to freedom and said freedom

[00:03:48] Yes

[00:03:50] Freedom this really is a stroke of luck

[00:03:55] Because we've been looking for freedom

[00:04:00] Now here's a bucket and a mop

[00:04:03] So clean yourself up

[00:04:05] And show us what you've got

[00:04:07] Cause you're freedoms bride today

[00:04:11] In the space of freedom today

[00:04:13] Now just you slip away and slip along

[00:04:16] Young stepped from out of his mother's firm grip

[00:04:20] One eye closed from where he'd slipped over courages lip

[00:04:24] In the land of the blind

[00:04:26] The oneeyed man is a freak quipped queeg

[00:04:31] Well queeg took the title to young uncle's treasure

[00:04:37] And retired to draw great charts about leisure

[00:04:43] Uncle brought promises of black nylons for his bride to be

[00:04:50] And lace underwear thru which you could se

[00:04:58] He waited not for her to answer or sign

[00:05:04] But turned to his wise woman

[00:05:08] Without hint of jest

[00:05:12] Whose name was now wife

[00:05:16] And said So that we may live and live and live in the promised land

[00:05:20] Well Queeg and all his crew bid farewell to the bride

[00:05:27] The weddingdress and cake though unused

[00:05:32] Were laid out upon the mattress now called bed

[00:05:37] The price in this price less land

[00:05:41] As decoration was sown into the trail

[00:05:45] Two Indians a horse a nail

[00:05:49] Don't forget who paid or who was for sale

[00:05:52] Never forget the moral or who paved the trail

[00:05:56] Cinderella all dressed up in your shiny gold shoes

[00:06:03] You're out of sight you're out of sight

[00:06:06] Another drifting cinder come to ground

[00:06:08] Another lucky winner you've been found

[00:06:11] If you don't win you surely lose

[00:06:13] Don't lose

[00:06:14] Don't lose

[00:06:17] Is this

[00:06:18] Is this the bride ship to the free world
