Humanity It's time to bail but I think it's too late verse 2 riff All my cohorts think I'm crackers They've embroiled the local matters riff And despite obvious warning They won't heed my futile chatter But there's something they outta know There's a hooooooooooooooooooooole in the ship The end is oh so near The others show no interest or fear Our nature overwhelms our buoyancy Yeah nothing could patch the growing vacuity It's time to bail, but I think it's too late Bridge Is it possible we have a social disease that makes us close our eyes in dangerous times But I'm joining in nicely? Or are we too aware and simply too scared to accept destiny, our mortality Our mortality, yeah There's a hooooooooooooooooooooole in the ship And there's nothing we can do Our worst fears have now come true A few of us are struggling desperately To shoot the albatross of H.M.S. Humanity Our nature overwhelms our buoyancy And nothing could patch the growing vacuity It's time to bail, but I think it's too late It's time to bail, (It's time to bail) but I think it's too late
