Sampled from a section of community singing of ‘Row, Row, Row your Boat’. Based on two recordings - one from the room mic, and the second from a handheld mic - that have been overlaid and phased.

lyrics

TRANSCRIPTION
Everybody seems to know Row Row Row your Boat…
…seems to know Row Row Row your Boat…
Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is but a dream
Everybody seems to know Row Row Row your Boat…
