Kate Bush - Astronomer's Call (Live) [Act Two] lyrics

[Spoken Monologue] Hello? Yes, hello? Am I through to the coastguard? Over Yes, look, um... I'm calling because, er, well... I'm out observing the meteor shower tonight, I'm on, erm, Church Rock, and... I've just received a rather... well, erm, actually it's extremely alarming, erm, message It was very faint and, erm, staticy. I think he said that his ship's name is "Celtic Deep" and that he was sinking. Er - fast Well, no - er, yes he did! He gave, er, some co-ordinates, yes, he did. Er, he gave, erm, a... 7... a 9... but the, er, the signal was breaking up and, I tried to reply, you know, to tell him, er, that I could hear him, but, er, there was just dead air Yeah, just now - two or three minutes ago just before I called you the transmission... died Well hasn't anyone else reported it? Have you not heard anything about it? My name? Wha-wha-er, sorry - what's my name got to do with anything? Oh, come on! Come on! If a man says "Our ship is going down" isn't that enough?! Oh, to Hell with your protocol! There's a ship out there, in real trouble. It'll be dark soon... look... I need to know that you're going to do something, please Well, I don't know! You're the coastguard for fu- *tut* I think these people are depending on me. I'm the only one who heard them. Please. Do you understand? Hello? Hello?! Can you hear me? Over?!
