Everybody, listen to me and return me my ship.  I’m your captain, I’m your captain, though I’m feeling mighty sick.  I’ve been lost now, days uncounted, and its months since I’ve seen home.  Can you hear me, can you hear me, or am I all alone?  A revolt was underway on the ship and all the other sea dogs had abandoned ship.
