COLUMBUS stares down at the documents, moving them away
from the rain drips. He stares out by the window, and we

Speed along the lake,
do a ton or a ton and #
# When the sun goes down #
# You can make it,
make it good in a lay-by #
# Were not gray people,
were not dirty, were not mean #
# We love everybody,
but we do as we please #
# When the weathers fine #
# We go fishing or go sailing

# Were always happy #
# Lifes for living,
yeah, thats our philosophy #
# Sing along with us #
# Dee-dee-dee

JACOB (contd)
