Lions were loose
It was my job to tame them
To make them my friend
To be the entertainment
But my songs did not work on them
It just drew a great crowd
To champion the future dead
They rescue kittens instead
I'm on that sinking ship
And i can't stop crying
To bail out the water
My tears are contributing
And the waves are my backing track
And the moon is my ambience
And the wind is a song that will carry me through
So i sang the boys a slow one
And i asked them to follow me
To the calm of the ocean
To the sand beds of the sea
Now lions were sleeping
And I was creeping away
When a broken ship appeared
Quite unfit to sail
Still I sailed out to sea
Just before the rains came
Pouring down on me
Sabotage from the sky
I'm on that sinking ship
And I can't stop crying
To bail out the water
My tears are contributing
And the waves were my backing track
And the moon is my ambience
And the wind was a song that would carry me through
Where my heart is the only beat
And my soul is soloing
