Verso:
         E5             E5
We're an oyster cracker on the stew
        E5           E5
And the honey in the tea
          D5           D5
We're the sugar cubes, one lump or two,
C5               B5 (/C5 slide)
 In the black coffee,
  / E5                 E5
The golden crust on an apple pie,
     E5                   E5
That shines in the sun at noon,
        D5              D5
We're a wheel of cheese high in the sky,
D5        C5    D5 B5      E5
But we're gonna be sinkin' soon.

Piano Solo 3x: E5

     E5                   E5
In a boat that's built of sticks and hay,
   E5               E5
We drifted from the shore,
       D5            D5
With a captain who's too proud to say,
C5                   B5  ( C5 D5 )
 That he dropped the oar,
    E5            E5
Now a tiny hole has sprung a leak,
E5               E5
In this cheap pontoon,
        D5               D5
Now the hull has started growing weak,
D5        C5    D5 B5      E5
And we're gonna be sinkin' soon.

      G5
We're gonna be
        G5
Sinkin' soon,
      E5
We're gonna be
        E5
Sinkin' soon,
G5         C5
Everybody hold your breath 'cuz,
      B5               E5
We're gonna be sinkin' soon

Instrumental: E5 (5x)
              D5 D5
              C5 B5
              E5 (4x)
              D5 D5
              B5   E5

      G5
We're gonna be
        G5
Sinkin' soon,
      E5
We're gonna be
        E5
Sinkin' soon,
G5         C5
Everybody hold your breath 'cuz,
B5               E5
Down and down we go.

Piano Solo 3x: E5

         E5             E5
Like the oyster cracker on the stew,
    E5           E5
The honey in the tea
    D5           D5
The sugar cubes, one lump or two?
C5                      B5 ( C5 D5 )
 No thank you, none for me.
         E5                 E5
We're the golden crust on an apple pie,
     E5                   E5
That shines in the sun at noon,
         D5              D5
Like the wheel of cheese high in the sky
D5             C5    D5 B5      E5
Well ... we're gonna be sinkin' soon.

( B5  E5 )
