Prelude (The Family Trip)

There's no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going
There's no knowing where we're going
Or which way the wind is blowing
Is it raining, is it snowing
Is a hurricane a blowing

Not a speck of light is showing
So the danger must be growing (growing)
Are the fires of hell glowing
Is the grisly reaper mowing (faster)

Yes, the danger must be growing
For the rowers keep on rowing
And they're certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing

[Faster, faster, faster, faster, etc. in the background]

Stop the boat
