Philly Sinks |
| It’s always locusts, or floods, or drought |
| And then it’s parties or prayer |
| He picks a girl he can live without |
| And puts her down over there |
| Philly thinks, and when he thinks he can’t feel anymore |
| Philly drinks, and when he drinks, all the drunks hit the floor |
| Philly sinks, and when he sinks you go down |
| And when you do, you both drown |
| Congratulations, you hit the mark |
| You got the bird on the wing |
| The animatronic bloodhounds bark |
| The wind-up mockingbirds sing |
| Philly thinks, and when he thinks you can’t feel anymore |
| Philly drinks, at least he did when you knew him before |
| Philly sinks, but now the glass is a girl |
| But now the girl is a frown |
| Well, you can put in your oar |
| But you’re hoping for more |
| Like the gulls and the freighters they follow around |
| And if the rowing gets dull |
| Just knock a hole in the hull |
| And let the ocean swallow you down |
| Philly thinks, and when he thinks he can’t swim anymore |
| Philly drinks, until the tide pulls away from the shore |
| Philly sinks, and when he sinks you go down |
| And when you do, you both drown |
