lyrics

You can book a suite on a fancy cruise
With a window overlooking the sea.
Kick back and relax and enjoy the view
In the lap of luxury.

But what you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Are you gonna float or are you gonna drown?
What you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Will your time be up when it all goes down?

Once you get on board you can grab a bite
At every hour of the night or day.
You are sure to find any food you like
At the many fine buffets.

But what you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Are you gonna float or are you gonna drown?
What you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Will your time be up when it all goes down?

You can tell yourself that it can’t happen,
But you’ll be in for a big surprise
When you’re fumbling in the dark with your cabin door,
Water right up to your eyes.

Every night at eight you can catch the show,
And you can leave all your cares behind.
When they start to sing you can sing along –
Nobody seems to mind.

But what you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Are you gonna float or are you gonna drown?
What you gonna do when the ship is sinking?
Will your time be up when it all goes down?

What you gonna when the ship is sinking?
What you gonna do?
Will your time be up when it all goes down?
