Cold, cold comfort, this ground's cold comfort.
but we'll make a home here, we'll make a home here.
calling captains of industry,
your ships have been grounded.
your crews have perished in the rocky seas
now we'll see to their ashes.
make our names here.
we'll make our names here,
but we'll fake our glory.

well i was interred and i was exhumed,
then i was returned to the ground.
The ground.
The cold, cold ground.
i heard somebody brought down our last defense and ran us aground tonight.
(this ship is going down!)
i hope everybody called for an ambulance,
to take us home tonight.
(this ship's going down!)
drop our anchor, we'll drop our anchor.
(and we'll drop our anchor, we'll drop our anchor!)
we'll sink this city, we'll sink this city.
(and we'll sink this city, we'll sink this city!)
the kings of prosody wearing crowns on their teeth
because we need eleven hours of clemency before our offer's rejected.
bide time until the resurrection.
