Walk The Plank
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This ship is now under water
And the rats will never find their way back again
And my span, it gets shorter (1, 2, 3)
And I don't appear to my fit my skin anymore
Somewhere else descends the rain in western ways
Upon the echo of the day
Just the ebbing of the day
See how
They hang 'em high
And slap each other's backs
While the waters rise
Somewhere else descends the rain in western ways
Upon the echo of the day
Just the ebbing of the day
Walk the plank, abandon ship
Take it slow, don't lose your grip
Walk the plank and jump out of the fray
Walk the plank, abandon ship
Take it slow, don't lose your grip
Walk the plank and jump out of the fray
Walk the plank, abandon ship
Take it slow, don't lose your grip
Walk the plank and jump out of the fray
(1, 2, 3)
