Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to lament the loss of honesty to the art of saving face of vanity and opacity a generation lost beneath the waves loose lips sink ships we're all going down w'ere in the throes of vertigo higher is impossible sink like a stone let it all go higher is impossible the oceans rise to break the bow and i find peace within in the sound of water rushing in so bid farewell to all you know take your place way down below we'll sleep beneath the waves loose lips sink ships we're all going down w'ere in the throes of vertigo higher is impossible sink like a stone let it all go higher is impossible loose lips sink ships we're on our way down so slowly we all drift down all our kings are dead now.
