Just getting to hear this. I think the singer says 'field'.



Jim, excellent work on the transliteration from song to print.

What I'm hearing in the sir line is more like

"My name is ER Reverend Septimus Meek" which I think come from a slur between is and the ir in sir. I checked about the Sir/Reverend thing. It can be done either way depending on whether the knighthood was bestowed before or after the Reverend thing.
