The Lyrics
Took a shot with bad finance
Now you're swimming in your pants
Shouldn't say you're swimming cause your feet won't move
Plus the weight you're bearing now
Couldn't swim if you knew how
Something tells me you've got nothing left to lose
Nevermind
Shouting's just: Glub! Glub! Glub!
Police won't find you till their donuts eaten!
It's your fault you're turning blue
Pay your debts when they are due
When you borrow from the mob's what you should do
(splashing break)
When you're messing with the mob
Sleeping fish know where you are
All your troubles go away and you do too
When you don't pay what you owe
Cement shoes catch undertow
Never try your luck again you've paid your dues
Baited line
Sharks swim to those who smell
Your sweet aroma's calling hordes of great whites
Taking bites out of your knee
Soon you'll be a memory
When you're messing with the mob you're always screwed
Now you're swimming in your pants
Shouldn't say you're swimming cause your feet won't move
Plus the weight you're bearing now
Couldn't swim if you knew how
Something tells me you've got nothing left to lose
Nevermind
Shouting's just: Glub! Glub! Glub!
Police won't find you till their donuts eaten!
It's your fault you're turning blue
Pay your debts when they are due
When you borrow from the mob's what you should do
(splashing break)
When you're messing with the mob
Sleeping fish know where you are
All your troubles go away and you do too
When you don't pay what you owe
Cement shoes catch undertow
Never try your luck again you've paid your dues
Baited line
Sharks swim to those who smell
Your sweet aroma's calling hordes of great whites
Taking bites out of your knee
Soon you'll be a memory
When you're messing with the mob you're always screwed
