Sinking Ship
Sir, the ship is sinking, can we please patch up the holes?
No one seems to worry but then no one really knows
Water's crashing in to slowly pull our sister down
And I'm the only fool who knows that we're about to drown
Can't you be just a little bit easier on my mind?
Can't you be just a little bit gentler with my time?
'Cause I've got such a lot of things I really have to do
And I'll have more time for you when I'm through
See, the rats are leaving and they should know where to run
Forgetting all the good times and the good things that we've done
Running to our fatter ship and living with the crew
Just bring a leek and news to read, the rats and I with you
Can you be just a little bit easier on my mind?
Can you be just a little bit gentler with my time?
'Cause I've got such a lot of things I really have to do
And I'll have more time for you when I'm through
