Harry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
Mama stood cryin' at the dockside
Sayin' "Please son, don't take this trip"
I said "Mama, sweet Mama, don't you worry none"
Well, the whistle blew and they turned the screws
It turned the water into foam
Destination sweet salvation
Goodbye home sweet home
I'm in the dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
There was a trombone and a saxophone
The bass and drums were cookin' up the bandstand
And I was strummin' in the middle with this dude on the fiddle
And we were three days out from land
And now the foghorn's jammed and moanin'
Hear it groanin' through the misty night
I heard the lookout shout down "There's icebergs around"
"But still everything's all right"
Oh, the dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
They were burnin' all the flares for candles
In the banquet they were throwin' in first class
And we were blowin' waltzes in the barroom
When the universe went CRASH!
"There's no way that this could happen"
I could hear the old captain curse
He ordered lifeboats away, that's when I heard the chaplain say
"Women and children and chaplains first"
Well, they soon used up all of the lifeboats
But there were a lot of us left on board
I heard the drummer sayin' "Boys, just keep playin'"
"Now we're doin' this gig for the Lord"
I heard the dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
There's a wild-eyed boy in the radio shack
He's the last remaining guest
He was tappin' in a Morse code frenzy
Tappin' "Please God, S.O.S."
Jesus Christ can walk on the water
But a music man will drown
They say that Nero fiddled while Rome burned up
Well, I was strummin' as the ship go down
I'm in the dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
Dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
Dance band on the Titanic
Sing "Nearer, my God, to Thee"
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
Won't you dance with me
“Dance Band on the Titanic” is a song by American singer-songwriter Harry Chapin from his studio album “Dance Band on the Titanic” released in 1977. The song is an allegory on the Titanic disaster of 1912. He uses it as a metaphor for the state of the world by the mid-1970s where the planet was on a course to destruction that people were ignoring or denying. This song, which is one of Chapin’s most powerful, was executed in his characteristic style of storytelling.
The song starts by describing the band on the Titanic, which played "Nearer, my God, to Thee" as the ship was sinking. Despite the devastating circumstances, the band continued playing, and people continued to dance. Even though the iceberg was quite evident, nobody seemed to bother, which reflects people being stubborn to see the dangers that are so apparent. The next verse describes the moment on the ship, and the singer talks about his mother's concern for him going on this doomed journey. He dismisses her concern, saying that the Titanic is unsinkable, and even God cannot sink the ship. This reflects the arrogance of society to believe our progress had become unconquerable that it couldn't have been halted.
As the song progresses, we get a picture of the band playing and people dancing even as the threat of the iceberg became more noticeable to them. Chapin describes the orchestra's music, which is incredibly lively and contrasts with the reality that the ship is sinking. The song ends with the chapel encouraging women and children to be saved first, and the band continues to play music till the last moment as they drown with the rest of the passengers. This song's powerful message reminds us that it's all right to enjoy the momentary pleasures of life, but we mustn't forget what's happening around us and cause our downfall.
