Let me tell you all a story
As it happened recently
Some boys were headed from Newfoundland
In a brand new submarine
They were a pilot and a writer
An investor and his boy
The owner operator
Each one shared a single joy
The skies were black above them
The sea was mad with rage
While they floated down, down, down
Calm beneath the waves
So let me tell you all a story
As it happened recently
Some boys were headed from Newfoundland
In a brand new submarine
And while they travelled they were sleeping
They all dreamed a single dream
Of the midnight seas above them
And a ship that ran on steam
They all dreamed they were upon her
High atop the stormy seas
While they floated down, down, down
In a brand new submarine
