Well they said there was nothing to worry about
And they said there was no reason to shout
But I saw the bulkheads cracking
And for us there´s no way out

When we started on our journey
No one ever could have foreseen
Our desolate and lonely ending
and a growing helpless feeling

But it doesn´t take a genius to see

There´s a hole 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
It´s time to bail, but I think it´s too late

All my cohorts think I´m crackers
They´re embroiled in other matters
And despite obvious warning
They won´t heed my futile chatter

But there´s something they ought to know

There´s a hole 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

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 hole 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
