Throw your meal ticket out the window put your skeletons in jail

Cuz' Lord only knows its getting late

To give yourself a call let your bottom dollars fall

Throwing you two bit cares down the drain

Invite me to the seven seas like some seasick man
B G# E B
You will do whatever you please and I'll do whatever I can

Titanic, fare thee well, my eyes are turning pink

Don't call when the new age gets old enough to drink

F# B
Cuz' Lord only knows its getting late

Move on up the hill there's nothing dead left to kill
