We're Going Down - Abney Park

The captain goes down with the ship

But this captain is bailing fast

If we don’t, we’ll all take a dip

And this trip ain’t gonna last

The bilge is fillin' with water

And the seas are crashin' in

But as captain, I think that I’ve got her

'Cause this boat is filled with my kin

We’re going down, down, this boat is sinking

Down, down, salt water we’re drinking

Down, down, the boat is sinking

And this boat is going down

I see fishes swim past the porthole

The water is pouring downstairs

And the face on the tin of tobacco

Floats by and saltily glares

But just as I start to go hopeless

Just as I give in to remorse

The hull of the ship hits soft sand

And 'down' is no longer our course

For the tide is gently receding

Beach us long enough to repair

And then we’ll sail off to the sunset

Hand in hand, our journey is fair

We’re going down, down, this boat is sinking

Down, down, salt water we’re drinking

Down, down, the boat is sinking

And this boat is going down

We’re going down, down, this boat is sinking

Down, down, salt water we’re drinking

Down, down, the boat is sinking

And this boat is going down
