[Verse 1]
Medusa sails to Senegal in 1816
First we lost the cabin boy
[?]
We had to swing the lead
There were shallows all around
When the ship would break we took to prayer
Medusa's running round

[Chorus]
We rowed on the raft
We're sailing in the sun
There's 150 on the raft
We've lost another one
You're can't deny we're all at sea
We're drifting alone
How do you look a man in the eye
When you're spitting out his bones

[Verse 2]
[?]
Yet 17 remain behind to die in agony
[?]
50 died on the raft
7 around me
[Chorus]
We rowed on the raft
We're sailing in the sun
There's 100 of us on the raft
We've lost another one

You're can't deny we're all at sea
We're drifting alone
How do you look a man in the eye
When you're spitting out his bones

[Verse 3]
A wondrous sight so bright and white
[?]
We follow it down to swallow it down
Oh all for us
Pray to the almighty
Cast yourself to the sea
[?]

[Chorus]
We rowed on the raft
We're sailing in the sun
There's 70 of us on the raft
We've lost another one
You're can't deny we're all at sea
We're drifting alone
How do you look a man in the eye
When you're spitting out his bones

[Verse 4]
And in my arms my own true flesh died so quietly
Give praise to the butterfly or the almighty
And in my mouth my own true flesh tasted sweet to me
Give praise to the butterfly
[?]

[Chorus]
We rowed on the raft
We're sailing in the sun
There's 20 of us on the raft
We've lost another one

You're can't deny we're all at sea
We're drifting alone
How do you look a man in the eye
When you're spitting out his bones
