i went inside a cruise ship, going somewhere new
The ship was one color, a dark shade of blue
As I saw the sun set, I thought I should get some rest
Some people thought my pool skills were the best
So I played with them some more
We played until night’s end
I was ready to sleep
Whenever I closed my eyes
I heard something that sounded like a beep
I woke up and was ready to make the beeping end
Is that singing coming from the walls?
Then I heard the ship sing
Welcome to cruise ship Yakohama
You’re in a new place (You’re in a new place)
You are a new face
Lots of space here on cruise ship Yakohama
Please have no fear (please have no fear) Do you like it here?
I did not know what to say to it, this was so very odd
I thought back to when I played pool, I decided to nod
Some people were swimming, less than yesterday
Asking where people went, they are in Sick Bay
So I asked the person here
What happened last night?
He said We seem to have found a new virus, don’t panic, hang tight
And then we both heard a voice, I recognized it
I told him It is the voice of the ship
Yakohama than sang
welcome to cruise ship Yakohama
You all need to stay (you all need to stay) there is a delay
There is a new disease (a new disease) Time for quarantines
Each new infected person resets the quarantine
So no one can leave (no one can leave) I am sorry
Looking around I saw people dying
we are stuck here
we are stuck here
The dead are filling the corpse rooms, the living not far behind
We are all sick here, lots of us will not survive
The quarantine will ensure the disease doesn’t leave the ship
The is in all of us, no one can get a grip
The disease may kill us, but at least it’s confined
If it left and infected more, I would lose my mind
Live the rest of your lives on cruise ship Yakohama, I will be containment for the disease
Knowing that the virus can not escape should put you at ease
The quarantine shall ensure other people some safety
There will be sacrifice (will be sacrifice) overall it’s nice
While people will get sick and/or die in cruise ship Yakohama
The virus won’t spread anymore, upon death
Live the rest of your life on cruise ship Yakohama
Your sacrifice (your sacrifice) helps humankind
