Down with the Ship Lyrics by Happy Anarchy

Reset

2007

A furious night and a raging sea
A knock to the bow woke Ensign Lee
And up on deck no captain, no crew at all
"No! And where are all the life boats?!"
Down in the hold the water had started creeping up
To the top of a box of bottles marked rum
Then a lightbulb flashed above of his skull
Put the cork from the bottle
In the hole in hull
He got the spring plugged up
Drank a bottle of rum
Turned himself around and found another one
Down, down deeper and deeper we sink
With the fate of the drunken sleeper in the drink
Into the hands of the cold dark sea
Singin' ah
Down, down deeper and deeper we sink
With the fate of the drunken sleeper in the drink
Into the hands of the cold dark sea
Singin' ah
Got the spring plugged up
Drank a bottle of rum
Turned himself around and found another one
No more corks to plug
No more bottles of rum
Turned himself around and found another one
