We’re Sinkin’ © 2023 David Coller (ASCAP)

We’re sinkin’
I hate to wake you up, but we’re sinkin’
I know you’d like to sleep, but the water’s ankle deep
And a minor change of plans is what I’m thinkin’

We’re sinkin’
Put your breakfast plans on hold because we’re sinkin’
The ham and eggs sound nice, but they’ll come at a price
It’ll be salt-water coffee you’ll be drinkin’

We’re leakin’
We’re headed for the bottom, strictly speakin’
So while the water comes a-sloshin’
You could give your teeth a flossin’
While I activate this rusty rescue beacon

Einstein
All that I can say is, Wake up, Einstein
I didn’t raise a rumpus when you forgot the bloody compass
But now it’s time to leave that teddy bear behind, ‘cause we’re

Missin’.
The local TV news will say we’re missin’
They’ll never know our fate was to be the friggin’ bait
When like it or not, you and I were goin’ fishin’

The life-raft.
I really wish that you had brought the life-raft
Or at least a proper dinghy, not this leaky rubber thingy
Better suited to a baby in a bath, cause we’re

Sinkin’
And if we ever get to shore I’ll take up drinkin’
And the next time that we travel, it will be by bloody camel
Arrivederci, sayonara, we’re sinkin’
Are you daft, are you dim, do you really want to swim
Get your ass up off that bunk because we’re sinkin’
