Sinking Fast

Uncertain destinations calling drowning like a stone Freakshow world around us - hear those sirens moan We're sinking fast, yeh, yeh, yeh, we're sinking fast This ship is headed for the rocks in that stormy blast And we will we perish on the sea, tied up to that mast So let's sing our final shanty tune before we breathe our last We're sinking fast, we're sinking fast Those predatory parasites upon this world they tread Of all the fruits they drain it, and leave us pale and bled We're sinking fast You lead us to the ballot box as to the altar shrine And shamelessly you milk the trough and steal the bread and wine We're sinking fast From your tunnel vision mother nature reels from shock And blindly stumbles onwards and hears that ticking clock We're sinking fast Headed for that melting pot that point of no return Grasping for that parachute before we crash and burn We're sinking fast. That great global amoeba hoovers up everything Hanging by our finger tips to one last hope we cling We're sinking fast The banker's in his tower of glass, the dog has chewed the bone And grandma's on the toilet playing with her phone We're sinking fast No future for our children, they can only drown Sucked into the whirlpool, that slowly drags them down We're sinking fast The rich behind their iron gates, the beggars multiply While we're all dreaming of Range Rovers in the sky We're sinking fast So let's raise our voices one and all before the die is cast Tell it on the mountain this song will be our last We're sinking fast
