Everybody's drowning in
The new year
Five point three million nervous breakdowns
So they sit in silence
Beneath their violence
Haven't seen them for a week
They're not sitting in their parliamentary seats
Can you feel the sun in summer heat?
It's caved in from a hole in the sky
How? How? How? How?
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
Stop sending postcards, the land costs too much
Stop building statues, they're too out of touch
Stop paying taxes, the land costs too much
We're silent, silent, silent, silent
While everybody is drowning softly
Crabs are happily tumbling idly
Pick me up, I'm fumbling blindly,
Stumbling silently now
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
It tumbles down - how?
