Thresher

[00:23.92] On a clear April day, 1963
[00:35.56] Took a memorable ride on a silver submarine
[00:47.70] One hundred plus men
[00:52.87] John, Wesley, Harvey and me
[00:59.03] All aboard the SSN-593
[01:10.96] Goin' down, goin' down
[01:22.86] Goin' down, down, down, down
[01:31.92]
[01:42.21] "Harvey to base
[01:47.49] We're at 1,000 feet
[01:53.33] Jimmy's doing real good
[01:56.62] I think he's getting a hold of this thing"
[02:05.87] Then the rattle of pipes
[02:11.83] Then the hiss of the steam
[02:17.63] I was the man of the hour 'til alarm bells started ringing
[02:28.74] Goin' down, goin' down
[02:41.13] Goin' down, down, down, down
[02:53.49] Oh, thresher
[02:58.69] We can't take no more
[03:04.89] Slow pirouette into the arms of the ocean floor
[03:19.88]
[03:51.66] Wonder and fear
[03:56.96] Unending Black Sea
[04:02.93] Held everyone's gaze in a quiet humility
[04:14.74] Mother ocean we are
[04:20.54] At the mercy of thee
[04:27.03] Like children in uniform balancing on your knee
[04:37.87] Goin' down, goin' down
[04:49.98] Goin' down, down, down, down
[05:02.40] Oh, thresher
[05:07.74] We can't take no more
[05:13.70] Slow pirouette into the arms of the ocean floor
[05:26.47] Oh, thresher
[05:31.86] We can't take no more
[05:37.87] Slow pirouette into the arms of the ocean floor
[05:53.57]
