Bump in the Night |
«I set out to sea, in search of prosperity; |
When a raging storm washed me up and I thought I was home.» |
«Awakened on a sandy land when I heard a man yell…» |
Little Men: |
«Stay away! |
A giant monster crashed our shore. |
Tie him to the ground, |
don’t let him go.» |
«Had to show the people of the land where my intentions stand, started by |
telling my tale.» |
Little Men: |
«He left behind his wife and little kid.» |
«Battleships all packed with cannons, coming to destroy their land.» |
Little Men: |
«We agreed to set you free, but in return you’ll fight those enemies.» |
«'Traitor shouts were thrown my way, when I let their enemies slip away. |
Overheard their leaders say…» |
Little Men: |
«We should poison him or make him blind.» |
And back again to the seas where the wind took his wooden raft away. |
Fighting the raging storms and wondering where will be his next stay? |
Laid his sail down as he discovered an island ahead, |
To land on shores where mighty giants dwelled. |
«Looked around me, saw a giant farmer took me to his home, |
Asked his daughter to conceal me until he could present me to the queen; |
I was safe and sheltered.» |
Giant Farmer: |
«Fetch Gulliver, I shall take him to the queen.» |
«Astounded the queen was of my tiny size, |
She grew fonder of me and I was requested to entertain her instead of her |
jester, |
Ignoring his presence and pushing him further away.» |
Jealousy filled the jester’s heart when he was ignored and thrown away. |
«With his evil laugh, I found myself mired with death and it felt like it was |
my last day.» |
«Farmer's daughter came to my rescue; |
saving me from my deadly fate. |
Leading me to the open seas, I was asked to flee and sail away.» |
«I was lost with nothing but the stars to guide my way, |
Lifeless lay there.» |
«A wooden raft to the port side, Captain!» |
«Sailors took me back home.» |
«Gulliver, heed my words. |
What will become of your family? |
A desolate widow, fatherless children?!» |
«I swear I tell the truth, your honor!» |
«Very well then, we shall review your case next year at the same time. |
Guards, take him back to his cell.» |
His child enters the room, holding a tiny box, |
And walks slowly to the judge; |
Revealing the thread of evidence solely left; |
A little sheep from a little fellowman he kept. |
