[00:07.93] Asquith Jr.
[00:09.54] You and I go sailing by
[00:13.77] and no one will know where to find us
[00:18.05] Unseen, unknown and blissfully alone
[00:22.47] we're leaving the rif-raff behind us
[00:27.05] all afternoon in our sweet cocoon
[00:31.47] our cares for the moments at bay
[00:36.39] Side by side who knows how far we'll glide
[00:40.24] bid the world goodbye eagerly we'll fly
[00:43.62] away
[00:46.32]
[00:48.31] Monty:
[00:51.66] I am standing here with poison in my pocket
[00:54.56] standing on this frozen little dock-
[00:56.39] it seems that I've just let them skate my opportunity away
[01:01.30] if I had the poise to put the poison
[01:03.58] in a pot of tea or else a shot of gin
[01:05.48] I would be back amid the noise of London by the end of day
[01:09.16] But,
[01:09.86] I am standing here with poison in my pocket
[01:12.72] one eye on the target, one eye on the clock-
[01:14.87] it better happen soon before I lose my nerve and run.
[01:19.67] If I had a knife, I could have grabbed him
[01:21.64] and discreetly knocked him on the head and stabbed him
[01:23.92] not to mention what I would have done
[01:25.44] if I had had a gun
[01:27.48] Then again the thought occurred if i had truly taken stock
[01:30.78] it might have stopped me putting poison in my pocket.
[01:33.08] What a fool to travel all this way and not think twice
[01:37.39] Murder's not a hobby for the cautious-
[01:39.52] thoughts of violence can make the timid nauseous
[01:43.94]
[01:45.93] Unless of course the victim plunges head on through the ice
[01:50.50] It appears that i've been handed quite an opportune solution
[01:53.49] All that still remains is proper execution
[01:55.63] I had better join them on the lake before it gets too late
[02:00.53] Suddenly there is no stumbling block-
[02:02.93] it means that i won't need the poison in my pocket.
[02:05.16] What a stroke of luck Sibella teased me 'till I learned to skate.
[02:08.55]
[02:09.16] Asquith Jr. and Monty:
[02:10.07] Closer now time is racing-
[02:13.72] now time is racing on
[02:18.34] It's all a matter of pacing
[02:22.13] In a moment this moment will be gone
[02:28.04] Asquith Jr.
[02:29.03] You and I go sailing by
[02:33.23] and no one will know where to find us
[02:37.90] Unseen, unknown and blissfully alone
[02:41.90] we're leaving the rif-raff behind us
[02:46.76] all afternoon in our sweet cocoon
[02:51.16] our cares for the moments at bay
[02:55.80] Side by side who knows how far we'll glide
[03:00.10] bid the world goodbye eagerly we'll fly
[03:03.07] away
[03:04.66] Bid the world goodbye eagerly we fly-
[03:08.13] (Asquith Jr. drowns)
[03:30.45] Monty:
[03:33.40] Away
[03:36.02] All of this is frankly easier than i had though
[03:38.33]
