On Fire
The Liberty Belle was ready to sail, in a record-breaking time
The Smoky Stoker had been working overtime
The boilers were burning like a funeral pyre
The Smoky Stoker was on fire
Stood beside him dreaming of his Italian pizza oven, was the ships, Cook
He was reveling in his task of shoveling coke
Bart was racing up and down the ship
He was moving so fast; it was a small wonder that he didn't slip
You'd be mistaken for thinking; he'd been doing this for years
Shadow couldn't believe the change in her little brother, closing her eyes to focus, she was almost in tears
As luck would have it, they were facing the right way
It was good to have something going their way, they'd soon be making hay
They found their way into the Salt Marshes, and sure as hell they would find their way out
Bart had three rowing boats, leading the ship, he would ensure her safe exit, of that there was no doubt
