A Conversation Lyrics by Pulp Musicals

Episode 3: The Ghosts of Antikythera

2023

SAMUEL
Did I imagine the whole event
A subconscious sleight of hand
Did I lose all of my wits when I needed them most
Because the only other explanation
Is that I had a conversation with a ghost
I’m not crazy, Rose. I swear someone was just
Here and then they vanished
ROSE
I didn’t say that you were. Maybe… you just got
Sea-sick! You’d think I’d be used to sailing after all
Our time spent at sea, but my stomach has been–
SAMUEL
This was as real as you are to me right now. I did
Not imagine it!
ROSE
Okay. But can we at least ask the captain? Hе
Must know everyone on board
SAMUEL
Did I closе my eyes at the critical moment
Just a blink, and then he’s gone
Was it a sailor passing by on the way to their post
I know that I wasn’t dreaming
Could I have had a conversation with a ghost
AJ
His name was Kal?
SAMUEL
Appeared to be around forty years of age, a bit
Taller than I am
ROSE
Is there anyone on board that fits that
Description?
AJ
(trying to hide his nerves)
No. I’ve never had a crewman by that name
ROSE
Samuel spoke to him on deck not five minutes
Ago
SAMUEL
Wore a dirty black cloak, offered me rum–
AJ
I said no! (catching himself) Enough of this nonsense. Dismissed
CHORUS
All quiet through the night
Not a move, not a peep
Sunrise, standing by
SAMUEL
Walking on eggshells, losing sleep
CHORUS
Out there now on the starboard bow
Not a change, not a fret
Can we move ahead
SAMUEL
Not yet
Did any hand on deck believe me
When I told them what I saw
Or do they think my mind is finally toast
Well, I bet that they would act the same way
If they had a conversation with a…
MARGARET
I just met with the captain. His fears of
Privateering have subsided, and he has given the
Go-ahead for a small boarding party
HERSCHEL
I have a bad feeling about this
MARGARET
Rose, John - you’re to accompany Morgan in the
Initial search. Captain’s orders
ROSE
Aye-aye, Margaret! The first ones to board, John
How exciting!
HERSCHEL
Miss Stratford, slow down, there are many
Dangers to boarding a strange ship
ROSE
Uh-huh, when do we leave?
HERSCHEL
Miss Strat– (sighs)
SAMUEL
After all the things we’ve been through
Am I really just a passenger
I can’t abandon ship and head straight for the coast
Yes, this is the Sargasso
And I just had a science, horror, myth, or magic
Conversation with a ghost
MARGARET
Samuel, will you be alright?
SAMUEL
I don’t suppose I can borrow your magic for a
Little while?
MARGARET
Hey, if you’re in trouble, you know where to find
Me
