Sinking Ships Songtext

SINKING SHIPS
You take control of having
What you want around you
Every blink of your eye
Can make an old man seem younger
Than every single day in his life before
You carry round his weight
Like it was yours to show the world
I'm kinda level-headed too
But this loose lip of yours
Could sink Fifth Avenue
We all tried to share your point of view
Before we set the wheels in motion
Launched into the ocean
All aboard, the sinking ship is leaving
With all the secrets that you sold me
The ones without reply
All aboard, you'd better stop believing
We've only watered down the smallest town
So we can multiply
I want a special meeting too
With Captain Everyday of station Navy Blue
We all tried to share your point of view
But you've completely undermined us
And now I'm here to drop a line
Let's turn around
There's nobody around for miles (there's no one around)
There's nobody around for miles (there's no one around)
We've got a long, we've got a long
We've got a long way to go
We've got a long, ew've got a long
We've got a long way to go
We've got a long, we've got a long
We've got a long way to go
I'm kinda level-headed too
But this loose lip of yours
Could sink Fifth Avenue
We all tried to share your point of view
Before we set the wheels in motion
Launched into the ocean
All aboard, the sinking ship is leaving
With all the secrets that you sold me
The ones without reply
All aboard, you'd better stop believing
We've only watered down the smallest town
So we can multiply
