vigilantes of love – taking on water (live at the 40 watt) lyrics
[verse 1]
yes, yes, you’re a big ship
loaded down with a whole lot of baggage and freight
life’s a luxury liner
it’s cutting through each circ-mstance and wave
now the cold icy waters
have sent the captain with his bottle off to bed
you know the temperature’s dropping
and modern rock radio is dead
[chorus]
taking on water
yeah, going down fast
yes, under the breakers
send an s.o.s
tell all the p-ssengers
yeah, to spend what they wanna
taking on water
(taking on water)
oh
[verse 2]
why don’t you call it catastrophe
or the hand of the good lord reaching through?
you got to call it a tragedy
’cause there will be no last-minute interviews
got to be a bit heavy-handed
when you’re swimming in the shark-infested seas
you gotta get my attention
off of my treason and mutiny
[chorus]
taking on water
yeah, going down fast
yes, under the breakers
send an s.o.s
tell all the p-ssengers
yeah, to spend what they wanna
taking on water
(taking on water)
water, oh, oh, oh
[guitar solo]
[verse 3]
why don’t you 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
and you know my, know my nasty will
[chorus]
taking on water
yeah, going down fast
yes, under the breakers
send an s.o.s
tell all the p-ssengers
yeah, to spend what they wanna
taking on water
(taking on water)
water
[outro]
taking on water
(taking on water)
oh, oh
yeah, taking on water
