p r e l u d e

there's no earthly way of
        knowing
which direction we are
        going
there's no knowing where
        we're going
or which way the wind is
        blowing

is it raining? is it snowing?
is a hurricane a-blowing?

not a speck of light is
        showing
so the danger must be
        growing
oh, the fires of hell are
        glowing!
is the grisly reaper
        showing?

yes! the danger must be
        growing
for the rowers keep on
        rowing
and they're certainly not
        showing
any signs that they are
        slowing
