You're rollin'
Rollin'
You're on a tidal wave
Floating
You're floating
Right into an ocean raid
Say hello to davy jones
Watch you sink down like a bag of stones
Get your crew down for a mutiny
Today's the day
Surprise you in the night
I don't give you time to think
Shot you with my cannonball
And your ship's about to sink
Shot you with my cannonball
And I'll watch you drown
Breathing
You're breathing
You're sucking that final breath
Lower
You're lower
Lowered to the far, far depths
Don't forget your diving bell
Get yourself out of the water well
Now's the right time for a mutiny
Today's the day
Surprise you in the night
I don't give you time to think
Shot you with my cannonball
And your ship's about to sink
Shot you with my cannonball
We're taking water on
And going deeper down
My crew is panicking
There's nothing more to do
My captain's log will show
40, 000 leagues below
I went down with my ship to die
Surprise you in the night
I don't give you time to think
Shot you with my cannonball
And your ship's about to sink
Shot you with my cannonball
And I'll watch you drown
You're going down
I'll watch you drown
I'll watch you drown
