Jillette Johnson - When The Ship Goes Down lyrics

rate me

I wanna live in a better part of town

Over the park in a bed of garlands

With an ivory banister I can slide down

And a man outside that I go silent

I wanna fall asleep in a cashmere nightgown

When the ship goes down

I wanna live in a better part of town

Where I don't have to hide my diamonds

The bourgeois bubbling around,

But it can't touch my sweetish silence

They'll put me on the first lifeboat out

When the ship goes down

When the ship goes down

We deserve a chauffeur in our car

Black truffles... caviar

white gloves who open up every door

Life is short, let's get what we came for

I lied, I want more

I lied, I get what we came for

I lied, I want more

I wanna get high and never come down

Mountains of white and music so loud

I want a guy who's choosing my pearl

When the ship goes down

When the ship goes down

When the ship goes down!
