The Titanic Tragedy - Beau[00:00:00]
On the 14th night of April in the year of 1912[00:00:06]
The North Atlantic sun had slowly drowned [00:00:12]
The lookouts in the crows-nest[00:00:19]
Discussed between themselves[00:00:22]
The orders which on taking watch they found [00:00:25]
And as he rang the danger bell at 11:39[00:00:31]
The lookout Frederick Fleet did surely think[00:00:37]
This ship was the Titanic[00:00:44]
And her flag the White Star Line [00:00:46]
She's the ship that[00:00:50]
God himself could never sink[00:00:51]
The ship that God himself could never sink [00:00:56]
For an endless 30 seconds[00:01:06]
She bore down upon the ice[00:01:09]
That lookout Fleet reported as he saw [00:01:12]
Gliding on a mirror sea so cold it could entice[00:01:19]
An iceberg of a hundred feet or more [00:01:25]
And then with only seconds left [00:01:31]
Her bow began to swing;[00:01:34]
As ragtime played[00:01:37]
And soda drowned the scotch [00:01:39]
Titanic brushed the iceberg [00:01:44]
As soft as anything[00:01:46]
At 23 hours 40 by the watch[00:01:50]
At 23 hours 40 by the watch [00:01:56]
As Thomas Andrews was[00:02:06]
The man who built this mighty ship [00:02:07]
It was to him that Captain Smith did turn [00:02:12]
And as the great Titanic's[00:02:18]
Bow did surely start to dip[00:02:20]
In disbelief from Andrews he did learn[00:02:24]
That though the blow the ice had[00:02:30]
Dealt at first had seemed so light [00:02:33]
The water in the bow had come too high [00:02:37]
Now out there on the ocean[00:02:43]
On this lonely freezing night[00:02:45]
He learned his last command was doomed to die[00:02:49]
He learned his last command was doomed to die [00:02:56]
So the passengers were summoned[00:03:05]
Out by members of the crew [00:03:07]
Though many of them recognised their plight[00:03:11]
For looking round for lifeboats[00:03:18]
They saw relatively few[00:03:21]
To carry off so many in the night [00:03:24]
Now playing cards continued to be dealt [00:03:30]
All as before [00:03:34]
Whilst the boats were launched[00:03:36]
And those who could did leave [00:03:38]
With scotch and soda flowing[00:03:43]
As the players asked for more[00:03:46]
The widows in the boats began to grieve[00:03:49]
The widows in the boats began to grieve [00:03:55]
'Twas only two hours forty minutes[00:04:05]
From the iceberg to the end[00:04:08]
This April night when fifteen hundred died [00:04:11]
The saved could only sit and watch their[00:04:18]
Husbands and their friends[00:04:21]
Slip slow below the early morning tide [00:04:24]
The orchestra still played amid[00:04:30]
Cascading glass and plates;[00:04:33]
A hymn tune the survivors all agree [00:04:36]
The little boats now turned their[00:04:43]
Bows to the United States[00:04:45]
The flotsam the Titanic Tragedy[00:04:49]
The flotsam the Titanic Tragedy[00:04:56]
