Welcome! I am Captain G. Willikers.
Really? Truly? That be your name.
Oh no, Silly Billy, hid'n d'G all the same.
O let' me guess, O let' me guess.
What could d'G be..
Guess away, guess away
it's your time it's your cruise

for I've no interest in your clues
but how will I know the truth

okay, it's not easy, rarely heard
since the days the flood dried the Earth
What flood?
The Great Flood!
Which one?
The only one!

Oh, there's a GEE of history,
So Gilgamesh your name to be.
History, your cup of tea?
I drink coffee with my tea ...
Gilgamesh Aloysius Willikers,
at your service!
Tomimbum Winn Shogun -- visitors

G: Nor I, so affairs a Black Tie?
T: A god's not good enough for a White Dinner Jacket?
G: Only the hood--cleaners returned--the rest, they'll pack it.
T: What?
G: Got ya!
T: I'm lookin' forward to a very good time!
G: Of lookin' backward to once upon a time ...
