Big Ship Sinking

[kjpepper]

I'd forgotten that I meant to post something at 2:02 am saying something smackass about how the Titanic sank at that moment ninety-two years ago. But I was sleeping.

ah well. Here's the planned interlude anyway, 11 hours late.

*guzzle* *sings raucously*

Hey, they built the ship Titanic, to sail the ocean blue.
A sadder ship the waters never knew
It was on its maiden trip, that an iceberg hit the ship -
It was sad when the great ship went down.

It was sad (it was sad!)
It was sad (so goddamn sad!)
It was sad when the great ship went down (to the bottom of the....)
Uncles and aunts, little children lost their pants -
It was sad when the great ship went down.

They were not far from the shore, 'bout a thousand miles or more,
When the rich refused to mingle with the poor.
So they threw them down below, where they were the first to go.
It was sad when the great ship went down.

It was sad (it was sad!)
It was sad (so goddamn sad!)
It was sad when the great ship went down (to the bottom of the....)
Husbands and wives, little children lost their lives -
It was sad when the great ship went down.

I find myself wondering is somewhere down the line there will be an equally smackass song about 9/11. Considering humans have this extremely sick habit of making tragedy into high comedy... I look forward to it.

oh hell, late to class.
