The Lyrics
I’m in a scull with you,
rowing in time.
We mustn’t stop or we will lose,
I ain’t lyin’,
so keep plyin’
those oars like a madman;
keep ’em goin’ down
into water and then
pull ’em out. . .brandish another round
’cause in this scull, the crew
is you and I
(“me,” not “I”).
We’re the crew,
just we two.
Row: one-two!
Push on through.
Get this scow
right on up there
to the front, and we
will win, I vow.
Then I see:
you’re back there gulping brew.
We lose, big time.

If there are only two rowers, which one gets to chant Beowulf?
