Riegal - Pearls Before Swine[00:00:01]
First I will describe the scene to you[00:00:10]
Do you have it right [00:00:16]
In 1944 the Riegal[00:00:18]
She went down[00:00:23]
She went down[00:00:24]
With 4 000 prisoners[00:00:26]
Asleep on board[00:00:32]
Well now do you [00:00:35]
I want to know if you[00:00:38]
Have it right is it like[00:00:41]
The borders of a dream[00:00:43]
Have taken you inside [00:00:48]
The Riegel was a mighty ship[00:00:51]
4 000 prisoners strong[00:00:52]
The Captain he was gallant[00:00:56]
Or perhaps he was a prisoner too[00:01:00]
Who's to know for sure who's who [00:01:04]
One night it was very late[00:01:10]
The Riegel tore its side[00:01:14]
4 000 prisoners and the Captain[00:01:18]
They were trapped inside[00:01:22]
Has there been any news [00:01:26]
I feel so out of place[00:01:29]
The Captain's always busy[00:01:31]
Being in a state of grace[00:01:34]
Are you listening out there [00:01:40]
The crew they were a sorry lot[00:01:45]
Blinded by their blood[00:01:50]
The Captain he whispered orders[00:01:53]
You could not hear him above the flood[00:01:57]
Then somebody said "the ocean's here "[00:02:02]
But someone said "No there's more"[00:02:06]
And the last thing I remember[00:02:10]
Is a broken hand clinging to the Captain's door[00:02:15]
Has there been any news [00:02:19]
I feel so out of place[00:02:22]
The Captain's always busy[00:02:24]
Being in a state of grace[00:02:26]
But what I want to know is[00:02:28]
Anybody listening [00:02:32]
Is anybody listening [00:02:33]
Is anybody listening[00:02:36]
