- Were only interested in one. - The island.
-
Yes. the island.
-
They'd gathered proof that it existed.
-
They knew it was out there somewhere,
-
But they just couldn't find it.
-
Then a very clever fellow built this pendulum
-
On the theoretical notion that they should stop looking
-
For where the island was supposed to be
-
And start looking for where it was going to be.
-
What do you mean, "where it was going to be"?
-
Well, this fellow presumed, and correctly,
-
as it turned out, That the island was always moving.
