The Albatross Lyrics by Dave Malloy

Moby Dick: A Musical Reckoning

0

[AHAB, spoken]
Ship ahoy! Hast seen the white whale?
[PIP, spoken]
He's shouting something!
[DAGGOO]
The wind bows
The waves shrieked
And we heard nothing
And then the strange captains trumpet fell in the sea
And as the two ships passed a school of fish swimming by our side
Darted away with shuttering fins
Joining the silent strangers flanks
[AHAB, spoken]
Swim away from me then, you dare swim away from me? You dare?
[PIP]
Bye bye little fish, bye bye
Bye bye little fish, bye bye
[AHAB, spoken]
Yes Pip, say goodbye, say goodbye
