Hard to port
I can feel the boat
It’s harboring unto her brown
Sinking ship, man the lifeboats
Hold your nose, watch me drown

I’m the captain of the boat
But I don’t like being slaughtered
I’m the captain of the boat
But I don’t like this way I’m slaughtered

Hey I’m a sinking man
On a sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

I’m sinking now
On the sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

Don’t waste all your days
Pretending that you’re still afloat
Time comes, you will see
That all this drowning is your own

I’m the captain of the boat
But I don’t like being slaughtered
I’m the captain of the boat
But I don’t like this way I’m slaughtered
Hey I’m a sinking man
On a sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

I’m sinking now
On the sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

Don’t waste all your days
Pretending that you’re still afloat
Time comes, you will see
That all this drowning is your own

Hey I’m a sinking man
On a sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

I’m sinking now
On the sinking ship
And this stinking bloody job is all I have

I’m sinking man
I’m sinking man
I’m sinking man
I’m sinking man
Let’s get our act together
And get this boat off of the shore
