Ship Of Fools

[Verse 1]
Famous disappearing act
Kills 'em every time
The willing subject sneaks out back
And leaves her space behind

[Verse 2]
But life is not a parlour trick
There's no slight of hand
Just tryin' to save the sinking ship
And there's not sight of land

[Chorus]
And we are all in the same boat, darlin'
On the same rough sea
We are all in the same boat, darlin'
The ship of fools it seems

[Verse 3]
There's no good news in the news
Only bad news papers
As black humour stands amused
At the plight of human nature

[Verse 4]
There's still a lot of good in the world
No matter what they say
And when the darkness comes unfurled
There's a light that was built to stay

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Optimists and realists
And cynics all agree
That we are all in this
Together whatever will be

[Chorus X2]
