Lyrics:
Farewell, my friendsTaking leave of EnglandHeaded due south;Experimental gentlemenOn the high seasClear the distanceChase themoonAcrossthe sky;Experimental gentlemenAtthe ends of the EarthSeeking landfallTheobservers and collectorsMaking order of the worldAt the mastheadCrow's nestSpyglass in hand;Experimental gentlemenListen out forThe sound of the wavesBreaking on a distant shoreAt the edge of the known worldDare to knowSet a course for the starsMen of reasonMaking sense of the worldAnd the wonder of it allDare to knowThe wonder of it all
