Verse
         Em             Em
We're an oyster cracker on the stew
        Em           Em
And the honey in the tea
          D7           D7
We're the sugar cubes, one lump or two,
C7             B7 C7D7
                (// slide)
 In the black coffee,
    Em               Em
  /                  
The golden crust on an apple pie,
     Em                   Em
That shines in the sun at noon,
        D7              D7
We're a wheel of cheese high in the sky,
D7      C7  D7B7    Em
                        *
But we're gonna be sinkin' soon.
Piano Solo...
Em
 (x3)
     Em                   Em
In a boat that's built of sticks and hay,
   Em               Em
We drifted from the shore,
       D7            D7
With a captain who's too proud to say,
C7                 B7  C7D7
                     (// slide)  
 That he dropped the oar,
      Em          Em
  /               
Now a tiny hole has sprung a leak,
Em               Em
In this cheap pontoon,
        D7               D7
Now the hull has started growing weak,
D7      C7  D7B7    Em
                        *
And we're gonna be sinkin' soon.
      G
We're gonna be
        G
Sinkin' soon,
      Em
We're gonna be
        Em
Sinkin' soon,

Everybody hold your breath 'cuz,
