Trivia

  • The lyrics in the journal were used in the gameplay trailer for Dishonored.
    • The soundtrack includes more verses, including, "Shoot him in the heart with a loaded pistol."
  • The song is based on the sea shanty "Drunken Sailor," which describes ways to punish a sailor for insobriety.
  • During the DLC mission, A Captain of Industry, Bundry Rothwild sings a line of the song as a parody over the Slaughterhouse's loudspeaker: (Sings) "What shall we do with a striking worker...?" (Laughs) "What shall we do with you, Miss Ames?"
