Lyrics Down with the Ship - The Rumjacks

Down with the Ship

She’s hanging round the bar ‘cause there’s beer for sale
I’m not going down down with the ship no
A fun night heads, a bad one tails
I’m not goin' down down with the ship
She’s lookin' for a love from a magazine
And a wind swept gondola dream boat dream
A white picket fence that she found on a scene
While waitin' for the ship to go down
Spoons in the sink but they’re full of holes
I’m not going down down with the ship no
Don’t trust your mates, the number one rule
I’m not going down with the ship no
They tell themselves it’s under control
Still got mounds if they ain’t got souls
More money in dope than there is on the dole
While waitin' for the ship to go down
I stood at the scene and I wondered why
I’m not going down down with the ship no
I spend my time with junkies and liars
I’m not going down down with the ship
There’s more romance in a ministers pants
Then there is in this scene and its sad piss-ants
Yes today I’ll down tomorrow I’ll dance
Not waitin' for the ship to go down
Posh scones for breakfast buttered like toast
I’m not going down down with the ship no
And lost ideas as it drips down the coast
I’m not going down down with the ship
Got a king size belly and a fat TV
And a pile of wine soaked dvds
The late night come and the internet sleeps
While you’re waitin' for the ship to go down
She’s hanging round the bar ‘cause there’s beer for sale
I’m not going down down with the ship no
It’s a fun night heads, it’s a bad one tails
I’m not going down down with the ship no
Shes lookin' for a love from a magazine
And a windswept gondola dream boat dream
And a white picket fence that she found on a scene
While waitin' for the ship to go down
