Moby Duck

[00:00.20] After fourteen years I left the sea, for a life upon a lake
[00:05.74] After all the storms I'd seen, I needed a good break
[00:10.92] I thought still waters would mean peace for me
[00:14.27] But that was a mistake
[00:16.81] For the place I chose was bedevilled by a giant, evil drake
[00:22.73] A mallard of such malice, twice the size of any man
[00:26.22] A bill to give you nightmares and a monsterous wingspan
[00:29.63] You cannot hope to fight it, so avoid him if you can
[00:33.41] That terrifying waterfoul, the beast beyond the dam
[00:37.14] Row-ho, row-ho, row with all our might
[00:40.58] Row with harpoons loaded and spoiling for a fight
[00:44.00] Row-ho, row-ho, and with any luck
[00:47.38] We'll win the day and do away the dreaded Moby Duck
[00:51.28] I'm not one for surrender, so a vengeful oath I swore
[00:54.65] I gathered up me hearties like so many times before
[00:58.14] We shod our ship with weapons and prepared to go to war
[01:01.59] 'Til the fetid, feathered, fearsome, flying duck will breathe no more
[01:05.64] Row-ho, row-ho, row with all our might
[01:09.01] Row with harpoons loaded and spoiling for a fight
[01:12.59] Row-ho, row-ho and with any luck
[01:16.26] We'll win the day and do away the dreaded Moby Duck
[01:19.52] There was bonnie brave Marie, who to her arms had waved goodbye
[01:23.02] And handsome Jack whose duck-attack left him without an eye
[01:26.84] The Darby twins with one leg each on deck were standing by
[01:30.08] Only a couple dozen limbs between a crew of twenty-five
[01:33.84] Row-ho, row-ho, row with all our might
[01:37.48] Row with harpoons loaded and spoiling for a fight
[01:40.84] Row-ho, row-ho and with any luck
[01:44.34] We'll win the day and do away the dreaded Moby Duck
[01:47.99] The fight raged on for several hours, defend and then attack
[01:52.39] With beatings from those wicked wings, our boat began to crack
[01:57.05] The beast reared up to finish the job, and with a mighty quack...
[02:05.44] (Quack)
[02:06.51] I rammed my harpoon in his throat and made a tasty snack
[02:10.14] Row-ho, row-ho, row us back to shore
[02:13.87] We'll drag his broken body back and roast it on an oar
[02:17.25] Row-ho, row-ho, barbecue the beast, with hoisin sauce and pancakes
[02:22.45] We will have the biggest feast
[02:24.40] Oh, row-ho, row-ho, row with all our might
[02:28.26] We rowed with harpoons loaded and spoiling for a fight
[02:31.30] Row-ho, row-ho, row we had all the luck
[02:35.09] We won the day and did away the dreaded Moby Duck
[02:38.86] We won the day and did away the dreaded Moby Duck!
[02:41.88] (Quack)
