Well the news came down the avenues
It's a catastrophe
Our boys left Mordi just after 5:30 and they haven't since been seen
Somebody wake their families
I think of all those handsome boys and all the things they could have done
And all the lives they would have led and all the games they should have won
And can't this ship move any faster?
Mornington football boating disaster
My mother watched and waited on the shoreline
I've never seen that look on her face
She said, "You can set your sails, son, but it doesn't mean the winds will change"
Then she said, "Why couldn't they just take the train?"
The cream of the seaside crop are sleeping on the ocean floor
I'd turn to heaven above for help but the reverend had three sons on board
Poseidon is s cricket fan, or maybe he's a bastard
Mornington football boating disaster
