Lyrics

Same long faces in the work-mans hall
Caramel crisp counts his birds
Cliff chips lines up his dominoes
Kingfisher lead singer calms his nerves

I'm drinking, sinking, swimming
I'm drowning, working, smirking, learning
I'm burning, sleeping, thieving, cheating
Beating, I'm eating, I'm deep in a goldfish bowl
It's sink or swim

The hall down town just burnt to the ground
My boxing ring turned to ash
Red-head, ginger bread, sells tickets at the door
Stella sleep walks in the sand

I'm drinking, sinking, swimming
I'm drowning, working, smirking, learning
I'm burning, sleeping, thieving, cheating
Beating, I'm eating, I'm deep in a goldfish bowl
It's sink or swim
Looking in, they're looking in

Hard up, outta luck, time to ride the village bike
A bike been used ten times or more
Grape vine, here's the wife, lays down her royal flush
I think I've lost another wife

I'm drinking, sinking, swimming
I'm drowning, working, smirking, learning
I'm burning, sleeping, thieving, cheating
Beating, I'm eating, I'm deep in a goldfish bowl
It's sink or swim
They're looking in, its sink or swim
