"Come Sail Away"--Styx hit song which ends in an alien visitation with the main character. Cartman's inability to do anything without hearing the song through is very telling, but also a recent fad here in America is Children's Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
Come Sail Away
Lyrics (from Official Styx Web Site)
I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board, I'm the captain, so climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try to carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away

that's why PArker and Stone have the "Ave Maria" sung by a Neville brother at the end, and pan out, with the little grave, same as the movie: same song, same
singer, same pan same grave. Cannibalism is a subject covered in American history, because of the true tales of pioneers (The Donner Party) traveling from the east coast to the west coast who encounter unexpected bad winter in the Rocky Mountains and die off, eating the dead to survive. | Donner Party Home Page |
