TEXT:



D A7 D A7

'Twas in nineteen hundred and sixty-five

D A7

And of June the thirteenth day

D G

That we weighed our anchors to our bow

D A7 D

And for Greenland bore away, brave boys,

A7 D

And for Greenland bore away.



Bold Stanley was our captain's name

And our ship the DIMOS bold,

And we poor souls our anchors weighed

To face the storms and cold, brave boys,

To face the storms and cold.



And when we arrived in that cold countree

The icecap to explore

We wished ourselves at the Evans Area

On New Jersey's sunlit shore, brave boys,

On New Jersey's sunlit shore.



"Then at it, boys," our captain said.

"To the tunnel let us go."

And we spread our mats in the gloom and the dark

To melt those tons of snow, brave boys,

To melt those tons of snow.



And when our labors all were done

And our backs did ache full sore

The mats went to gallant Louie Alvarez

And we went to the bar, brave boys,

And we went to the bar.



And when we returned to our homes so dear

Louie told a dreadful tale:

His postdocs got drunk and they fell in the machine

And the whole experiment failed, brave boys,

And the whole experiment failed.



Now the losing of those young postdocs

It grieves my heart full sore,

But the losing of that Nobel Prize

It grieves me ten times more, brave boys,

It grieves me ten times more.



Now Greenland is a dreadful place,

A land that's never green,

Where there's ice and there's snow and the physicists all go

And daylight's seldom seen, brave boys,

And daylight's seldom seen.
