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

Chorus:
Bm7            C                     Bm7
I'm drinking, sinking, swimming and drowning,
           C                     Bm7
Working, smirking, learning and burning,
            C                 D
Sleeping, thieving, cheting, beating,
                                 G
I'm eating, i'm drinking in goldfish bowl.
D              C
It's sink or swim.

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

Chorus

                G
They're lookin' in
D               C
They're lookin' 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

Chorus

They're lookin' in
It's sink or swim.
