(Respect!)

Is never given enough today

I'm tired of looking the other way

(Respect!)

An appetite that we can't sustain

We're on a mission to kiss our days away

So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?

Yeah I thank my lucky stars to be alive here

(Respect!)

A generation of castaways

Under a nation of tidal waves

(Respect!)

Are we the passengers or the prey?

You can't escape from the past on holiday

So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?

Pack your bags because the tide is getting high

Don't be afraid of the view from economy class

It's just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

Who's gonna sound the alarm when the bridges collapse?

Is this the point where the bomb reaches critical mass?

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

(Respect!)

Catastrophic events don't change

Today we feast, but tomorrow we pay

(Respect!)

But don't you worry cause you'll be safe

I got a ticket to piss your days away

So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?

Yeah I thank my lucky stars to be alive here

Don't be afraid of the view from economy class

It's just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

Who's gonna sound the alarm when the bridges collapse?

Is this the point where the bomb reaches critical mass?

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

Don't be afraid of the view from economy class

It's just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

Who's gonna sound the alarm when the bridges collapse?

Is this the point where the bomb reaches critical mass?

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

One city from the coast disappearing too fast

One city from the coast sunk into the past

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

One city from the coast disappearing too fast

One city from the coast, we can never come back

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats

All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
