Taking On Water

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yes, you're a big ship Loaded down with a whole lot of baggage and freight And life's a luxury liner Cutting through each circumstance and wave Now the cold icy waters Have sent the captain with his bottle off to bed And the temperature's dropping Radio, radio is dead [Chorus] Taking on water (Taking on water) Going down fast (Going down fast) Yes, under the breakers Send an S.O.S. Tell all the passengers (Tell each and every) To spend what they wanna Taking on water (Taking on water) [Verse 2] C-c-c-call it catastrophe Or the hand of the Good Lord reaching through C-c-c-call it a tragedy But there will be no last-minute interviews Got to be a bit heavy-handed When you're swimming in the shark-infested seas Yeah, to get my attention Off of my treason and mutiny [Chorus] Taking on water (Taking on water) Going down fast (Going down fast) Yes, under the breakers (Under the breakers) Send an S.O.S. Tell all the passengers (Tell each and every) To spend what they wanna Taking on water (Taking on water) [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Yeah, call me irresponsible But baby, call me undeniably true Well, at least for the moment When I first set my eyes on you Got a big hole in a small heart I'm asking You--no, begging You to fill Gonna take some radical surgery But you know my, know my nasty will [Chorus] Taking on water (Taking on water) Going down fast (Going down fast) Yes, under the breakers (Under the breakers) Send an S.O.S. Tell all the passengers (Tell each and every) To spend what they wanna Taking on water (Taking on water) [Outro] Taking on water (Taking on water, oh) Yes, taking on water
