Philly Sinks

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
It's always [?] still floods or drownAnd then it's parties or prayerHe picks a girl he can live withoutAnd puts her down over therePhilly thinks, and when he thinks he can't feel anymorePhilly drinks, and when he drinks, all the drunks at the floorPhilly sinks, and when he sinks you go downAnd when you do, you both drownCongratulations, you hit the markYou got the bird on the wingAnimatronic bloodhound sparkA wind-up mockingbird singsPhilly thinks, and when he thinks you can't feel anymorePhilly drinks, at least he did when you knew him beforePhilly sinks, but now the glasses of girlsBut now the girl is a friendBut you can put in your oarBut you're hoping for moreLike the gulls and the freighters they follow aroundAnd if the rowing gets doneJust knock a hole in the hullAnd let the ocean swallow you downPhilly thinks, and when he thinks he can't swim anymorePhilly drinks, until the tide pulls away from the shorePhilly sinks, and when he sinks you go downAnd when you do, you both drown
