Riptide

from Riptide by Ben Blutzukker

lyrics

set the sails
loose the anchor
the open seas
gloom - the silence before the storm
no-one at the helm
come to grief
walk the plank
doom - realize that we are betrayed

the rats are leaving the sinking ship
dejected, no one will follow you any more
you are going to sink without a trace
we strike the sails and your days are gone

scrub the deck
close-hauled
no land in sight
riot - a tempest in a teapot
deeply loaded
riptide
abandon the ship
quiet - realize that it is to late

the rats are leaving the sinking ship
dejected, no one will follow you any more
you are going to sink without a trace
we strike the sails and your days are gone

are we a battle cruiser?
or just a banana boat?
we save appearances
but don't think that we can not go down!
are you the skipper?
or just a cabin boy?
we have a heavy list
but you fire broadside - to save your hide!

the rats are leaving the sinking ship
dejected, no one will follow you any more
you are going to drown with all hands
we strike the sails and your days are gone

the rats have left the sunken ship
