---
Stop the wrecking ball
---
Are you getting off?
---
This course in melodrama
---
Wake me when it's over
---
Thin skin we're whipped again
---
They're merciless
Flag wavers prey and prosper
---
Escape with me father
Come on come on
You and I have been around
Beaten up run out of town
Don't say "God's planned
the world we live in
Take what you can get" it's written
Earth shakes and waters rise
A plague hits my
lover dies And you say
"Best of all possible worlds
Get by while it all unfurls"
---
Syphilis aren't
you sick of this
---
Give me a hand
---
To the taking
back of our fate
---
Believe in another
There's a little
---
patch of land there
---
Just up ahead
Slow and steady we can prosper
---
Trot on with me father
Come on come on
(Repeat Chorus 1)
-------- x2
This land needs tiling
Come on and help out
The pirate swine
We'll bluff and cop out
oh yeah!!!
Your worlds just burn out
You and I have been around
Beaten up run out of town
Don't say "God's planned
the world we live in
Take what you can get" it's written
Tragic comic repartee
This schlep has
had it's day I say
Get by or you're a goner
Hands on and we'll get stronger
Get by or you're a goner
Hands on and we'll get stronger
--------------- x2
Oh The water has spat us out
Coast is clear again
Hush up now
And don't get bored
Work a-way
We're on the mend
